Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson just lit up the red carpet in a way that nobody predicted.
The couple, playing romantic leads in the soon-to-be-released reboot of The Naked Gun, had genuine chemistry during the movie’s London premiere, and fans are already hooked. Anderson, 58, kissed Neeson, 73, on the cheek as they posed for pictures, and then was later spotted with his arm around her waist while taking photos with the film’s producers. It was flirtatious, it was sweet, and it was the event’s hot topic.
The Naked Gun reboot revives the classic ’80s and ’90s franchise, and this time around, Pamela and Liam star as the leads. Their onscreen chemistry has been teased for months, but by their offscreen vibes, the chemistry goes far beyond the script. During a candid interview with People magazine in 2024, Neeson straight-up admitted, “I’m madly in love with her,” calling Anderson funny and full of charm. Meanwhile, Anderson hasn’t been shy about the vibe either. During an interview with Entertainment Weekly this May, she had stated, “Our chemistry was clear from the start.” She described her experience of working with Neeson as “electric” and hailed him as “inspiring, a real gentleman, a legend – and well-deserved as such.
Anderson even teased that they had “romantic dinners”, albeit their assistants were also present, being sweetly professional. “Our relationship remained ‘professionally romantic’ on set,” she winked, adding more. This cheeky dance between flirtatiousness and respect has only stoked speculation about their dynamic.
Despite the sparks, both Pamela and Liam have made it clear they aren’t actively dating. Pamela, who was previously married to rockstar Tommy Lee, has often said that her main focus is her two sons, Brandon and Dylan, now 29 and 27. “I’ve never gotten over our family not surviving intact,” she told USA TODAY, adding that her sons encourage her to focus on herself and her career.
As for Neeson, the Taken star remains famously private since the passing of his wife Natasha Richardson in 2009. When asked last year if he was dating, he simply replied, “No, in a word. I’m past all that.” But their shared life experience and deep respect for one another seem to be the foundation of a close friendship, if not more.
With The Naked Gun remake creating buzz early and their on-screen romance doing double duty in real life, it’s safe to say Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson are now the most surprising and lovely couple of 2025. Whether it’s love or merely legendary chemistry, fans are on board for all red carpet smooches.
