As the highly anticipated premiere of *The Naked Gun* approaches on August 1, 2025, the film has taken an unconventional step to boost its buzz: the launch of a free OnlyFans page.
Starring Liam Neeson as Lt. Frank Drebin Jr. and Pamela Anderson as the sultry Beth, this reboot-sequel to the beloved 1980s and ’90s comedy franchise is already generating headlines. The decision to embrace the adult-oriented platform for promotion has sparked curiosity, blending the film’s signature absurdity with a modern marketing twist that seems tailor-made for Anderson’s flair.
A Unique Marketing Stunt
The *Naked Gun* team has leaned into the franchise’s cheeky humor by creating an OnlyFans page filled with pun-laden content and playful imagery. Promotional posts tease “top secret — unless you subscribe… then it’s topless too,” a nod to the film’s risqué comedy roots.
This bold move aligns with the legacy of Leslie Nielsen’s original portrayal of Frank Drebin, known for deadpan delivery and physical gags, and suggests the reboot aims to carry forward that irreverent spirit.
With Neeson bringing his action-hero gravitas to the comedic role and Anderson channeling her iconic sex-symbol status, the OnlyFans page serves as a provocative teaser, inviting fans to engage with the film’s offbeat energy ahead of its theatrical release.
The free access to the page — unusual for a platform typically associated with paid subscriptions—appears designed to maximize reach, leveraging Anderson’s past association with bold publicity stunts.
Her history, from *Baywatch* to her recent career resurgence with *The Last Showgirl*, positions her as the perfect figure to pull this off.
Posts found on X highlight the campaign’s quirky appeal, with fans noting it’s a marketing ploy that would have amused Nielsen himself.
A Star-Powered Comeback
The film, directed by Akiva Schaffer and produced by Seth MacFarlane, marks a significant moment for both leads. Neeson, known for intense roles in *Taken* and *Schindler’s List*, has embraced the challenge of slapstick comedy, earning praise from Anderson for his “silly” and “generous” on-set demeanor.
Anderson, meanwhile, has called the role a “cathartic experience,” reflecting her evolution from television icon to a versatile actress earning Golden Globe nods. Their chemistry, described as “professionally romantic” by Anderson, has been a highlight of the press tour, with a cheek-kiss moment at the London premiere on July 22 fueling speculation of a deeper bond.
The OnlyFans page seems to play into this dynamic, with Anderson’s involvement hinting at her knack for knowing what grabs attention. “Pamela, you know what helps a film start strong at the box office,” quipped a recent interview, acknowledging her instinct for leveraging her persona. Her character, Beth, a femme fatale with a mysterious edge, promises to bring a fresh twist to the franchise, echoing but reimagining Priscilla Presley’s Jane from the originals.

A Legacy Reboot with Modern Flair
Scheduled for release by Paramount Pictures, *The Naked Gun* follows years of development, including a stalled Ed Helms-led reboot in 2013.
The current iteration, greenlit in 2022, casts Neeson as Drebin’s son, tasked with saving Police Squad in a plot laced with sight gags and NSFW humor.
Anderson’s addition in 2024, alongside a strong supporting cast including Paul Walter Hauser and Danny Huston, has elevated expectations. The OnlyFans campaign, launched just days before the premiere, amplifies this momentum, blending nostalgia with a digital-age gimmick.
While some question the necessity of a seventh Superman or fourth Fantastic Four reboot, *The Naked Gun*’s return feels justified by its early positive reviews and Anderson’s career renaissance. The free OnlyFans page, though unconventional, could prove a savvy move, drawing younger audiences familiar with the platform while appealing to longtime fans of the franchise’s absurdity. As August 1 nears, all eyes are on whether this steamy marketing ploy will translate into a strong box office debut—proof that Pamela Anderson still knows how to make waves.
