However the chemistry between Pamela Anderson and Liam Neeson is defined, Daniel Neeson seems on board with it.
Liam Neesonโs son, 28, was in the audience for Bravoโs โWatch What Happens Liveโ on Aug. 3, when host Andy Cohen promised โThe Naked Gunโ co-stars he wouldnโt ask them to define their relationship during the interview โ while noting heโd support a romance, should that be the case.
The actors, who have not confirmed a romantic relationship, shared a laugh before Cohen told Liam Neeson, โI do just want to say, as a very old friend of yours, all of your friends are very much stanning this relationship, as the kids say.โ
While Anderson replied, โAw,โ as Liam Neeson put his hand on her shoulder, the two didnโt comment further.
โRight, Danny?โ Cohen asked Daniel Neeson in the audience.
A faint โYesโ could be heard in the background before the camera panned to Daniel Neeson, who flashed a smile and laughed.
โYes, OK, very good,โ Cohen continued.
Cohen was the latest person to inquire about the flirty friendship between Anderson, 58, and Neeson, 73, that has been on display as they promote โThe Naked Gun,โ a reboot of the classic 1988 comedy. The movie was released on Aug. 1 and made $17 million at the domestic box office over the weekend.
TODAY’s Craig Melvin pointedly asked the co-stars about their chemistry on July 29.
โWhatโs the deal here?โ Craig asked on TODAY. โYouโre both single right now. Thereโs clearly chemistry on display throughout this film. Are you two an item?โ
โCraig!โ Neeson replied.
โWhat?โ asked an exasperated Anderson. โI donโt understand the question.โ
โI had never met Pamela before. We met on set. And we discovered we had a lovely, budding chemistry โ as two actors,โ Neeson said.
โYeah,โ agreed Anderson.
โItโs like, โOh, this is nice. Letโs not mold this. Letโs just let it breathe,โโ Neeson continued. โAnd thatโs what we did.โ
Their respective families have also shown their support for their parents throughout the press tour. Andersonโs two sons, Brandon Lee, 29, and Dylan Lee, 27, joined Danny Neeson and his brother, Michaeรกl Richardson, 30, at โThe Naked Gunโ premiere in New York City on July 28.
Neeson’s shared his two sons with his late wife, actor Natasha Richardson, who died in 2009 in a skiing accident. Anderson’s shares her two sons with her ex-husband, Mรถtley Crรผe drummer Tommy Lee.
In โThe Naked Gun,โ Neeson plays Frank Drebin Jr., the son of the original character played by Leslie Nielsen. Anderson plays his love interest, Beth Davenport.
The movie represents both actors playing out of their comfort zone in a zany spoof comedy, which left Anderson praising Neeson’s acting skills and commending him for helping her when she was worried about comic timing.
โHe has so much charm and so much charisma that you kind of just fall into it,โ Anderson told The New York Times. โI canโt explain it because Iโve never experienced it before.โ
