Anderson has insisted audiences will be able to tell she plays a femme fatale \u2018because I wear a beret\u2019.<\/p>\n The trailer for the upcoming film has turned heads due to a certain raunchy and explicit scene that depicts a sex scene between the two leads. Except it\u2019s an optical illusion.<\/p>\n We see a villain looking into what looks to be Drebin\u2019s apartment using night vision goggles, finding the pair in what looks like a sex act, but is in reality Anderson\u2019s character Beth on her knees cleaning an oven with Neeson\u2019s Drebin standing near her. There\u2019s a slapstick vibe about the whole thing, which looks to be a lot of fun.<\/p>\n ‘Our chemistry was clear from the start. We have the utmost respect for one another,’ Anderson said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly last month, describing how the pair shared professional but intimate dinners together.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_code][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″] ‘I invited him and his assistant over for romantic dinners with me and my assistant so our relationship stayed “professionally romantic” during filming,’ she said.<\/p>\n They reportedly bonded over their shared ‘love of literature and a good laugh’ and Anderson said that she left cookies, muffins, and homebaked sourdough bread in Neeson’s dressing room.’I am in awe of him, his experience, and work ethic. I soaked him in like a sponge,’ she said.<\/p>\n Of the film, which is out this summer, she added: ‘I’m hoping people love it. We had so much fun making it. I think it’s timely for a beloved comedy like this. I’m a fan of the originals. As Liam says, “We could all use a good giggle.” I pray we do more.’<\/p>\n Neeson has answered in kind about his fond feelings for Anderson in an interview with People. ‘I’m madly in love with her,’ he said. ‘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.’<\/p>\n \u2018Whether I can carry it or not, I honestly don\u2019t know,\u2019 he said of his doubts around his comedy skills in The Naked Gun.\u00a0<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-19-at-14.05.54.png” alt=”Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson” title_text=”Screenshot 2025-06-19 at 14.05.54″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″] But Anderson was quick to disagree, calling the actor ‘humble’. \u201cIt was hard to keep a straight face in scenes together,\u201d she says, calling him \u2018the perfect gentleman\u2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u2018He brings out the best in you\u2026 with respect, kindness and depth of experience. It was an absolute honour to work with him.\u2019<\/p>\n Anderson is also set to star in upcoming thriller Rosebush Pruning, directed by Karim A\u00efnouz and starring Elle Fanning, Riley Keough, Lukas Gage, Callum Turner, Jamie Bell, Tracy Letts and Elena Anaya. She has talked about playing a character aged slightly older than herself, at 57 years old.\u00a0<\/p>\n She describes the movie\u2019s plot as centred around a dysfunctional family: \u201cI leave my family to the wolves, but it all gets turned around on me real quick.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n Anderson has also opened up about the restorative time she spent two years ago, after her marriage to bodyguard Dan Hayhurst ended. \u2018I spent some time for myself, stripping away this caricature that I created, because I\u2019d started believing that it was true,\u2019 she said. \u2018You have to have self-acceptance, and I honestly believed it was over, that life. It was like a death, in a way. But it was the beginning.\u2019\u00a0<\/p>\n She has since starred in the gorgeous, star-studded Gia Coppola film The Last Showgirl alongside Jamie Lee Curtis, Kiernan Shipka, Dave Bautista, Brenda Song and Billie Lourd.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text module_class=”custom-quote” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font=”Libre Bodoni|||on|||||” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_text_color=”#333333″ header_2_font_size=”40px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”] ‘I worked hard on the role, another cathartic experience,\u2019 she says of playing showgirl Shelly. \u2018Every film, it seems, tackles a deep-seated issue that needs to be expressed and surfaced in ways other than anything else.’<\/p>\n Anderson further opened up about the nuances of her character, and the complications around a woman\u2019s socially mandated role to set a \u2018good example\u2019, and\u00a0 \u2018showing that you can follow your dreams, and we don\u2019t have to play these roles that have been society\u2019s roles for us.<\/p>\n \u2018It\u2019s always a fight, I think, for women. For some reason, we\u2019re always explaining ourselves and our choices. I\u2019m always explaining myself and my past.\u2019<\/p>\n She also described how her role in The Last Showgirl reminded her of what she was capable of.<\/p>\n \u2018I feel like I\u2019ve finally been able to access part of what I\u2019m capable of,\u2019 she said. \u2018If I never do anything else, I have done something. I feel like this has really been the catalyst for the rest of my life.\u2019<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#111111″ divider_position=”center” divider_weight=”2px” module_class=”custom-divider” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text module_class=”credit-texts” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|||on|||||” text_orientation=”center” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”] Photo: Getty<\/b><\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Oh Pam, how we love you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":11089,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11084","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-feature"],"acf":[],"modified_by":"guestgrazia","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11084","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11084"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11084\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11093,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11084\/revisions\/11093"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11089"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11084"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11084"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/grazia\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11084"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}‘she’s funny and so easy to work with.’<\/h2>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]
