New York Rangers defenseman Adam Fox is a star. But not in the way you're thinking, as he's had a cameo on an ESPN commercial advertising the newest Liam Neeson movie, the reboot of "The Naked Gun", a series whose claim to fame was star Leslie Nielsen being the driving force. Now, Fox gets to show his stuff on the big screen, as his cameo is going viral.![Adam Fox]()
Adam Fox, according to Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., is a "career criminal" for engaging in a tilly on the ice. Liam Neeson, who plays Drebrin's son, isn't any smarter than his father, in the series, who was a dimwitted policeman who was subject to antics that would cause you to gut laugh uncontrollably.
A teaser for the new Naked Gun film dropped Monday, and it features a cornucopia of sports cameos, from retired New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning to Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts to Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers and New York Rangers defenseman Adam Fox.
The New York Rangers' Norris Trophy-winning defenseman was just relieving himself while Drebin Jr. uncomfortably approaches him in the restroom, taking care of business.
The tone from the original movie series hasn't changed much, as the cluelessness level is at its peak here.
Adam Fox. Keep your hands where I can see them. I hear you've been starting fights in public with thousands of witnesses. It's all part of the game. So you think this is a game, huh? Career criminals.
Honestly, we love the fact that Foxy is moving into the public sphere in The Naked Gun (2025) as part of the advertising push.
The fact that ESPN is using this as a way of pushing the NHL is hilarious, although unconventional.
Fox's repertoire has expanded from elite defenseman to co-star with the famous actor, Liam Neeson.
