A plotline in the 2025 film revolves around the New Year's Balls drop, turning the annual celebration into a gag about testicles. Naked Gun superfans may recognize this as a goofy reference to the original film, when Nielsen’s Drebin says everything reminds him of his ex-wife, only to see a power plant that looks like two large breasts.

There’s probably nobody better to direct and write a movie like The Naked Gun reboot than Akiva Schaffer. He has a resume full of brilliant, dumb, joke-a-minute work. Together with Andy Samberg and Jorma Taccone he is a member of the comedy trio The Lonely Island.
