Paramount’s slate of upcoming films includes new entries in popular franchises, a Bee Gees biopic from Ridley Scott, and much more
I’m comforted that I recognize everything in the headline. I feel safe and taken care of by our entertainment.
THE RUNNING MAN
Director: Edgar Wright
Producers: Simon Kinberg, Nira Park, Edgar Wright
Cast: Glen Powell (Top Gun: Maverick)
Based on the novel of the same name by Stephen King that the author first published under the pseudonym Richard Bachman.
All I need to know is when it’s out and I’ll be there.
UNTITLED NAKED GUN
Release Date: July 18, 2025
Director: Akiva Schaffer
Producers: Seth MacFarlane, Erica Huggins
Executive Producers: Daniel M. Stillman, Akiva Schaffer
Cast: Liam Neeson
Based off the widely popular comedy franchise The Naked Gun and television series “Police Squad!” by Jim Abrahams & David Zucker & Jerry Zucker.
Couldn’t have had worse timing.
If it’s at all Seth MacFarlane-y or Naked Gun-y, there will be a Nordberg/OJ reference. Would appreciate a “Family Guy breaks the fourth wall when talking about Laura Bush killing someone” type of thing.
I’d definitely be up for that.
