Lt Frank Drebin Jr. (Liam Neeson) is the son of…you guessed it, Frank Drebin, played by Leslie Nielsen in the original Naked Gun films. But that’s not all. As revealed in a hysterical gag, the entire police force, including Paul Walter Hauser’s Capt Ed Hocken Jr, is the son or daughter of someone from the original cast.

As the star of “The Naked Gun” trilogy, Leslie Nielsen left some very large cop shoes to fill. Though the films were made decades into his long career, Lieutenant Frank Drebin remains Nielsen’s signature role.

Original "Naked Gun" director David Zucker criticized Hollywood's lack of originality and explains why he won't see the Liam Neeson reboot of his classic comedy series.
