‘And-Her-Sons Productions was set up to reinvigorate beloved characters that their mom helped to create and inspire,’ a source told the Daily Mail.

‘It is an invaluable perspective. She is an artist and will surely have a lot of input. These shows will be quality productions with depth, meaning, and fun. A chance to do it her way.’

They went on to say the characters have ‘stood the test of time,’ despite lacklustre reviews at the time of the film’s initial release.

The cult film holds a 28% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with the critics’ consensus reading: ‘Barb Wire could’ve been fun camp, but Pamela Anderson can’t deliver her lines with any dramatic or comedic impact.’

In their review, Time Out said: ‘The film’s haphazardly edited, lacks narrative clout, and rambles on to a ludicrously extended conclusion.’

The Los Angeles Times wrote: ‘Made with a wafer-thin stylishness that thinks dressing the Congressionals like storm troopers is creative, Barb Wire plods along, following one pro forma scene with the next.’

Empire commented on how very little Pam wears throughout the film, noting one, ‘frankly gobsmacking sequence of Our Pam, dripping wet, dancing and periodically falling out of the first of countless black costumes. It’s not great cinema, but it is as great as this gets.’
