I thought Neeson was done making action flicks?


Guess he was lying.

reply

No doubt. He didn't just say it once. He said it in like 50 back to back interviews. Must have been a negotiation ploy.

reply

I wish he’d get back to interesting roles (Schindler’s List, Michael Collins) he’s so much more then just a tough action hero when he actually tries.

He was good in Silence more recently despite being underused.

reply

Agreed, he is a much better actor than an action star, but I guess middle age crisis hit him hard.

reply

He's almost 70, I think middle age is in his rearview mirror already.

just one more action movie he said

Or he needs a new house.

reply

He did say that, but then he reversed course a short while later and said something to the effect that he'll be making them until the day he dies (I can't seem to find the exact quote).

Either he just enjoys doing it, or this is where the money is for him right now, or both.

People can change their minds.

He'll continue to play
as long as they pay
