Liam Neeson takes over Naked Gun movie franchise

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, directed by Akiva Schaffer (Saturday Night Live, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping) and from producer Seth MacFarlane (Ted, Family Guy).
The movie is continuing a comedy legacy with Neeson playing the son of previous bumbling boob detective Frank Drebin, played by Leslie Nielsen.
Joining the case are cast Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, CCH Pounder, Kevin Durand, Cody Rhodes, Liza Koshy, Eddie Yu, with Danny Huston.
The Naked Gun will be in cinemas globally in August from Paramount Pictures.
