Fans of comedy and action are in for a treat as Liam Neeson’s The Naked Gun is officially set for its digital release on September 2, 2025. The reboot of the legendary comedy franchise brings Neeson into the spotlight as Frank Drebin Jr., a role that gives a fresh twist to the character once made iconic by the late Leslie Nielsen.
The movie, described by Paramount Pictures as a “wild and outrageous comedy,” cleverly plays on Neeson’s action-packed career, with a tagline hinting that only one man has the “particular set of skills” to lead the Police Squad and save the world. After its theatrical release on August 1, 2025, the film is now ready to make its way into homes with plenty of extra features.
Digital and Home Release Details
Starting September 2, 2025, fans can buy or rent The Naked Gun on Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. Those who purchase digitally will unlock nearly one hour of bonus content, including deleted and extended scenes, hilarious bloopers, behind-the-scenes interviews with the cast, and even satirical advertisements created exclusively for the film’s promotion. Availability of extras may differ depending on the digital retailer.
For collectors, the wait for a physical copy won’t be long — a 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD edition is scheduled for release on November 11, 2025, complete with all the extras.
When to Expect Streaming on Paramount+
While a confirmed streaming date for Paramount+ hasn’t been announced yet, most Paramount theatrical releases hit the platform about two to three months after the digital launch. That means subscribers can likely expect The Naked Gun to arrive sometime in late 2025. Until then, fans can revisit the classic Naked Gun trilogy, which is already available on Paramount+.
Cast and Characters
The reboot features a star-studded cast alongside Liam Neeson. The lineup includes:
- Pamela Anderson as Beth
- Paul Walter Hauser as Ed Hocken Jr.
- Kevin Durand as Sig Gustafson
- Danny Huston as Richard Cane
- Liza Koshy as Detective Barnes
- Busta Rhymes in a cameo role as a bank robber
With a mix of action, slapstick comedy, and familiar faces, this reboot aims to capture both fans of the original and a new generation of viewers.
