The Naked Gun Teaser: Akiva Schaffer and Liam Neeson Reboot the Spoof Comedy

In a rather dire year for studio comedies, the one that most has our attention is a new take on The Naked Gun from Akiva Schaffer, the Lonely Island member and brilliant mind behind Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping and Hot Rod. With Liam Neeson on board to lead, alongside a cast including Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, CCH Pounder, Kevin Durand, Cody Rhodes, Liza Koshy, Eddie Yu, and Danny Huston, the first teaser has now arrived.

Here’s the short synopsis: “Only one man has the particular set of skills… to lead Police Squad and save the world! Lt. Frank Drebin Jr. (Liam Neeson) follows in his father’s footsteps in THE NAKED GUN.” Set for an August 1 release, check out the humorous first teaser and poster below.
