MovieWeb.com reports that there's a chance LIAM NEESON could star in a remake of "The Naked Gun". There's nothing in the works right now, but "Family Guy" creator SETH MACFARLANE has asked him if he's interested.

Liam says, quote, "[It could] either finish my career or bring it in another direction.  I honestly don't know."

Liam has already worked with Seth several times . . . on the movies "A Million Ways to Die in the West" and "Ted 2", and on "Family Guy" and "The Orville".

Remember, LESLIE NIELSEN was a serious actor for DECADES . . . until he was cast in the "Airplane" comedies in 1980 and 1982.

The same creative team brought him back for a short-lived TV series called "Police Squad", which became the basis for the "Naked Gun" movies.  The first one came out in 1988, with sequels in 1991 and 1994.
