Liam Neeson is back in the action game, baby!

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Like most people, I love me some Liam Neesons, and liked seeing him do the whole Charles Bronson thing for a while. I think what I like most about Neeson as an aging action star is the vulnerability he brings to his roles, which ups the stakes immediately – even if the scripts themselves aren't pulling their weight. Basically, while Neeson may be a badass killing machine, he's also a human one. And that can make all the difference. Unfortunately he said he's retiring from action movies for good

…or is he?

At the premiere of his new MARK FELT biopic, Neeson was asked if he was indeed retiring from action movies. Here's the exact quote from Neeson:

It’s not true, look at me! You’re talking in the past tense. I’m going to be doing action movies until they bury me in the ground. I’m unretired.

Well that's awesome! I'm aware not all his action films were great (some not even good), but he was always good in them, and looked like he was having a lot of fun. And if there's any chance for an A-TEAM sequel…sign me up!

Meanwhile, you can next see Liam Neeson kicking ass in a less…punchy and kicky way…in MARK FELT: THE MAN WHO BROUGHT DOWN THE WHITE HOUSE tomorrow, September 29th!
