The Naked Gun 4K Blu-ray Preorders Are Already Live

The Naked Gun hit theaters on August 1, reviving a series that hadn’t seen a new entry since 1994. Starring Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson, the slapstick cop comedy is earning impressive reviews from critics, who are praising its hilarious meta-commentary script and numerous callbacks to the original films. Fans who want to bring the comedy to their home theater can preorder the upcoming 4K Blu-ray for $33.49 at Amazon. Standard Blu-ray and DVD versions are also available. While there’s no release date yet, Blu-rays often launch about three months after a film’s theatrical run, so it’s likely The Naked Gun’s home releases will arrive in just a few months.

Directed by Akiva Schaffer (Hot Rod, Lonely Island) and produced by Seth McFarlane (Family Guy, American Dad), The Naked Gun is a sequel to the original Naked Gun trilogy from the late 1980s and 1990s, marking the first new film in the series since 1994’s Naked Gun 33 1/2: The Final Insult. Following in the tradition of the original movies, The Naked Gun spoofs police procedural and crime drama TV shows, but now with a modern twist and a meta commentary framing. The film stars Liam Neeson as Frank Drebin Jr., the son of the original trilogy’s Frank Drebin Sr. (who was portrayed by the late Leslie Nielsen). Like his father, Drebin Jr. is a bumbling police detective who finds himself in a vast conspiracy. Pamela Anderson, Paul Walter Hauser, and Danny Huston also star in the movie.

If you want to catch up on the original Naked Gun trilogy–and its short-lived TV series–while waiting for The Naked Gun Blu-ray releases, you can grab all three films at Amazon. If you’re looking to grab all three, The Naked Gun Trilogy Collection is you best bet. It collects the three original films on Blu-ray for just $30. It also gets you some bonus features, including group commentary by David Zucker, Robert Weiss, and Peter Tilden. Standalone versions of the films are also available on Blu-ray. A few Blu-rays are offered in „Like New“ condition and carry inflated price tags–so we’d recommend sticking with either the trilogy bundle or the individual films for $19.11 each.
