The Naked Gun release date as Liam Neeson gushes over Pamela Anderson
Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson are set to appear in the new Naked Gun movie, with the pair sharing some steamy scenes together
The Naked Gun, one of the top blockbuster movies of this year, is already generating buzz amongst fans as it features Liam Neeson taking on the role of Frank Drebin Jr alongside Pamela Anderson as Beth, with the pair sharing some sizzling moments on screen.
The picture acts as a follow-up to Naked Gun 33: The Final Insult, which hit cinemas in 1994. Originally, Ed Helms was set to take the leading part, but by 2021 there was enthusiasm for casting Neeson, who was eager to tackle a comedy role.
Following production on the forthcoming picture, the Baywatch icon and Taken star have displayed considerable off-camera rapport, with Neeson and Anderson getting cosy at the premiere, reports the Express.
Speaking to You Magazine recently, Neeson admitted one of his most enjoyable filming experiences was "the sex scenes" with Anderson, during which they worked with an intimacy coordinator.
The Naked Gun hits theatres on August 1, with Neeson describing his co-star's audition footage as "incredibly sexy" and "funny".
Anderson remarked that their connection was "important", with both stars agreeing it developed naturally.
They laughed about how the intimacy coordinator needed to "go for coffee" as the sequences were "too hot".
Both stars are single and the romantic speculation remains unverified.
Neeson previously revealed whilst promoting the picture that he was "madly in love" with Anderson.
He revealed to People: "With Pamela, first off, I'm madly in love with her. She's just terrific to work with.
"I can't compliment her enough, I'll be honest with you. 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."
Anderson was full of praise for her co-star, stating: "He brings out the best in you... with respect, kindness and depth of experience. It was an absolute honour to work with him."
Following the UK premiere of the film, fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, where Anderson was seen planting a kiss on Neeson's cheek.
Neither of the stars have confirmed if they are dating in real life.
The Naked Gun will hit cinemas on August 1.
