The Naked Gun, a comedy franchise involving a buffoon police officer and his just as goofy colleagues on the Police Squad (
first teaser was in April). This new remake / reboot is directed by Lonely Island mastermind
Akiva Schaffer, who also made the other hilarious movies
Hot Rod,
The Watch, and
Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers recently. It's the single most important
Naked Gun movie since the other
Naked Gun movies. Only one man has the particular set of skills... to lead Police Squad and save the world!
Liam Neeson stars in this as Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., son of the original Frank Drebin, played by comedy maestro Leslie Nielsen. Joining the case are
Pamela Anderson,
Paul Walter Hauser,
CCH Pounder,
Kevin Durand,
Cody Rhodes,
Liza Koshy,
Eddie Yu, with
