Reportedly Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson did not see each other from when cameras stopped rolling in June 2024 until the press tour in July 2025. Sources and PR teams reportedly pushed a narrative of a burgeoning romance during the film's promotion. Public appearances and affectionate moments created a blended-family image that attracted attention. Both actors offered warm public comments, though tones differed. The Naked Gun opened with $16 million and climbed to about $88 million worldwide against a $45 million budget. The box office performance indicates the promotional strategy contributed to the film's commercial success.
In fact, we're told Pamela and Liam didn't even see each other from the time cameras stopped rolling in June 2024 until the press tour launched more than a year later, in July 2025," the tabloid wrote, adding that a source said the whole story was pushed by their PR teams and Paramount. I'll admit, in July, when another source close to the production of The Naked Gun reboot told People that the two had "a budding romance in the early stages," I was all ears.
Still, I gave them the benefit of the doubt, despite my suspicions, since the thought of two industry veterans finding love in their old age was sweet. Their kids are about the same age, and, at the New York premiere, they photographed well as a big, happy blended family. Anderson even planted a very PG kiss on Neeson's cheek on the red carpet in London.
They always spoke fondly of one another, too. In October 2024, Neeson jokingly declared he was "madly in love with her." Meanwhile, Pamela said she would "always have a friend in Liam." Which was...a little different from Neeson's quote. In hindsight-but also, even at the time-it was giving major coworker vibes. Still, the stunt appeared to work. The Naked Gun raked in $16 million opening weekend and has since climbed to around $88 million worldwide.
