Pamela Anderson Makes Dynamic Entrance in Raunchy Naked Gun Trailer with Liam Neeson

You’ve never seen Liam Neeson or Pamela Anderson quite like this.

A hilarious new trailer for The Naked Gun, in theaters this August, has the pair at the center of a few shocking — and NSFW! — sight gags.

The Akiva Schaffer-directed reboot-sequel of the 1980s and ’90s crime comedies that originally starred Leslie Nielsen as police detective Frank Drebin now finds Neeson, 73, as that character’s son, Frank Drebin Jr. Making quite the dynamic entrance as sultry femme fatale Beth is Anderson, 57.

“Only one man has the particular set of skills … to lead Police Squad and save the world,” reads an official logline for the movie, a subtle nod to Neeson’s past Taken role.

“It was hard to keep a straight face in scenes together,” Anderson told PEOPLE in October 2024 of working with Neeson, calling the Irish actor “the perfect gentleman.”

“He brings out the best in you,” she added, “with respect, kindness and depth of experience. It was an absolute honor to work with him.”

For Neeson, the feeling was mutual. “I’m madly in love with her,” he said of Anderson. “No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She’s funny and so easy to work with. She’s going to be terrific in the film.”

Schaffer, who co-wrote the script with Dan Gregor and Doug Mand, called Neeson “one of the last great actors with old school gravitas” in an April interview with PEOPLE: “It’s a joy to watch him lay it all on the line in the name of joyful laughs.”

And Anderson, the 47-year-old filmmaker added, is “so funny and smart and kind. She’s my new favorite person. She’s gonna really surprise people with how hilarious she is.”

The Naked Gun, from Paramount Pictures, is in theaters Aug. 1.
