The new The Naked Gun movie, starring Liam Neeson, is not available on Netflix. This major theatrical release is a product of Paramount Pictures, placing its immediate and future streaming rights firmly under the umbrella of its parent company. Currently, the hilarious original trilogy of The Naked Gun films is readily available to stream exclusively on Paramount. The 2025 reboot is expected to follow this pattern, likely becoming available on Paramount Plus after its initial run in theaters, possibly around October 2025.

In the reboot, Liam Neeson portrays Lieutenant Frank Drebin Jr., the son of the original Detective Frank Drebin. Frank Jr. must follow in his father's bumbling footsteps to prevent the closure of the infamous Police Squad, while simultaneously investigating a sinister plot. The plot involves a powerful gadget called the P.L.O.T. Device that a wealthy villain intends to use at a New Year's Eve event to revert humans to a more primitive, chaotic nature, forcing Frank Jr. to save the city and his job.

The foundation of the comedy reboot rests upon the hilariously chaotic cases of the original films.

The absurd adventures of the original trilogy of The Naked Gun

The original Naked Gun trilogy centered on the spectacularly inept Detective Frank Drebin, played with legendary deadpan charm by Leslie Nielsen. The first film, The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988), sees Drebin working to uncover a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth II, using a hypnotically induced assassin, all while falling in love with the chief suspect's assistant. The film established the franchise's signature style of relentless visual gags and absurd slapstick.

The subsequent films maintained this frantic comedic pace. The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear (1991) focuses on Drebin uncovering a plot by a powerful energy lobbyist to replace a brilliant scientist with a lookalike, aiming to manipulate the President's new energy policy. The final installment, Naked Gun 33⅓: The Final Insult (1994), pulls the retired Drebin back into action to infiltrate a maximum-security prison and stop a notorious bomber from executing a grand scheme at the Academy Awards ceremony.
