Where to Watch All ‘The Naked Gun’ Movies Before The 2025 Release

The first new The Naked Gun movie in 31 years hits theaters tomorrow, August 1!

Liam Neeson will step into Leslie Nielsen’s shoes as the lead of the new film, Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., son of Nielsen’s Lt. Frank Drebin. The slapstick comedy is already drawing rave reviews, but before you head to the theater, might we suggest a little movie night at home?

There are three The Naked Gun movies, which were released between 1988 and 1994, all stemming from the popular crime parody TV series Police Squad!, which also starred Nielsen.

While Police Squad! isn’t currently available to stream, all three movies are currently streaming on Paramount+.

Paramount+ offers two subscription plans. The ad-supported Essential plan costs $7.99/month, while the ad-free Premium plan (which comes with Showtime and live CBS) costs $12.99/month. New subscribers can take advantage of a seven-day free trial.

• The first The Naked Gun movie, a spin-off of the Police Squad! TV show, follows Lt. Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) as he tries to foil an assassination plot against Queen Elizabeth II, leading him to business tycoon Vincent Ludwig (Ricardo Montalban).

• In The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear, Drebin gets tangled with powerful energy corporations that are intent on putting a halt to the eco-friendly plans of Dr. Albert S. Meinheimer (Richard Griffiths), the new U.S. energy czar.

• The Naked Gun 33 ¹/₃ is the final film in the franchise to be made with original cast members and the creative team behind the series. In it, Drebin is called back into action after enjoying retirement with his new wife (Priscilla Presley) to stop a terrorist named Rocco (Fred Ward), who plans to bomb the Academy Awards ceremony.
