Who is Pamela Anderson playing in The Naked Gun?
Per Entertainment Weekly, Anderson will play a character named Beth in The Naked Gun. Anderson said that Beth “comes to the Police Squad for help” following the death of her brother.
“It is the same depth of process for a high comedy as it is for a drama,” Anderson said about starring in The Naked Gun. “I worked hard on the role, another cathartic experience. Every film, it seems, tackles a deep-seated issue that needs to be expressed and surfaced in ways other than anything else…I’m hoping people love it. We had so much fun making it. I think it’s timely for a beloved comedy like this. I’m a fan of the originals. As Liam says, ‘We could all use a good giggle.’ I pray we do more.”
Liam Neeson is playing Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., the son of Nielsen’s Detective Sergeant Franklin “Frank “Drebin, in the new Naked Gun movie. The cast also includes Paul Walter Hauser, Kevin Durand, Danny Huston, Liza Koshy, and more.
Anderson recently starred in 2024’s The Last Showgirl, which was directed by Gia Coppola, alongside Jamie Lee Curtis, Billie Lourd, and Dave Bautista. The role earned her a Best Actress nomination at the 82nd Golden Globe Awards. Her other upcoming projects include Kornél Mundruczó’s Place to Be and Karim Aïnouz’s Rosebush Pruning.
The Naked Gun will be released in United States theaters on August 1, 2025, by Paramount Pictures.
