The duo of Neeson and Schaffer seem like a flawless match for “The Naked Gun”. Despite being underrated, Neeson has a knack for keeping a straight face when saying the most ridiculous things imaginable. Schaffer, meanwhile, is renowned for creating some of the funniest comedy from the last two decades, and is associated with “The Naked Gun”.

The new trailer also reveals Paul Walter Hauser as Ed Hocken Jr., a recurring theme in the movie is that all the new detectives are sons of the original ones, including the unfortunate son of O.J.

With “The Naked Gun”, “Friendship”, and “One of Them Days”, it looks like this year will be filled with good comedies, which is great since we could all use a laugh. Unlike some movies that load their best jokes into the trailer, “The Naked Gun” suggests that the best is still to come.
