Neeson's turn as Frank Drebin Jr. in Paramount's reboot of The Naked Gun has reignited interest in slapstick comedies and brought new life to a classic franchise. The film's strong box office performance and overwhelmingly positive critical reception prompted speculation about possible sequels.

Original "Naked Gun" director David Zucker criticized Hollywood's lack of originality and explains why he won't see the Liam Neeson reboot of his classic comedy series.

Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson discussed their comedic turn as actors in "The Naked Gun" on "Late Night" and "The Late Show," respectively, on Wednesday.
