Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson turned heads on the red carpet at the London premiere of The Naked Gun. The event was held July 22 at Cineworld Leicester Square, and the two of them showed up looking close and overly comfortable around each other.
They smiled for photos, posed together, and at one point, Anderson gave Neeson a kiss on the cheek. She wore a strapless purple gown with a long train, and he had on a gray suit with a black T-shirt. They were joined by the rest of the cast for the premiere.
There’s been talk online about whether they’re a real couple or just playing it up for the cameras. They haven’t said anything official, but people have noticed how much they seem to enjoy each other’s company.
In an interview last year, Neeson said: “With Pamela, first off, I’m madly in love with her. She’s just terrific to work with. I can’t compliment her enough, I’ll be honest with you. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She’s funny and so easy to work with. She’s going to be terrific in the film.”
Anderson also praised him in the same interview. She said: “He brings out the best in you… with respect, kindness and depth of experience. It was an absolute honor to work with him.”
That article mentioned a few small things they did for each other on set too. Anderson “made him bread and cookies and left them for him in his dressing room,” and Neeson gave her his coat when she was cold.
Some fans online said they looked like a couple already. Others just said they were happy to see them both doing well and enjoying the moment.
In this new version of the movie, Neeson plays Frank Drebin Jr., the son of the character made famous by Leslie Nielsen. Anderson plays a lounge singer who’s out for revenge after her brother is killed.
Seth MacFarlane, who produced the film, said: “Liam Neeson is probably the only actor alive in the 21st century who could do what Leslie Nielsen did.”
Anderson has had a bit of a comeback lately. She said: “I was a little bit disappointed in myself a few years back when I thought, I guess that’s all there is.
“But after I [played Roxie Hart in Chicago on Broadway in 2022], I thought, Okay, from Baywatch to Broadway, I can live with that.”
