Liam Neeson Video Interview On ‘Taken’

“There were a couple of men I met, yes, before we started shooting who had done some shady stuff for governments in their past,” Neeson said about government agents he had met with before shooting the film to prepare for his role as an ex-CIA operative. “A couple of the stories they told me would literally make the hair on the back of your neck stand up.”

Neeson also revealed that he did all his fight scenes, but not all the stunts.

“I did want to do all the fights myself, which I did,” he said. “The stunts — I left that to my stunt double, Mark Vanselow. I was thrilled to do it! It’s something I don’t often get the chance to do.”

He’s one of Hollywood’s greatest actors and he’s getting in on the action with the #1 thriller, Taken. Here Liam Neeson takes questions from users of Uinterview.com.

  • Liaam have you killed any rabbits lately... Your role as the leader of the dead rabbits in 'Gangs of New York' was an epic portrail of the struggel of the poor... and the corruption of governments.

    I have noticed that like many in Holy Wood... you have taken a number of action roles that portray the struggles of the poor and disenfranchised aginst those with power.

    Is this an indicaiton of your personal positions concerning power... governments, corporate power, the wealthy and the poor?

    I enjoy you work... and the scope of its content.

  • I just saw the movie tonight (2/19). I don't care what the critics say it was a great movie! I would recommend it to anyone that likes no nonsense action movies!

  • Liam. I have not seen the movie Taken yet but the commercials for them are great. I am sure that Taken will live up to the hype.

  • Liam I think you are a great actor. I am old enough to be your mother but I have a crush on you. If you can keep doing action movies they seem to be what the kids love. I love you in anything.

  • I am devastated about the accident. One of my favorite movies was Nell, since it featured my "heartthrob" Liam with my all-time favorite Actress, Natasha. Your sons are terribly handsome. Because I was in a similar situation as Natasha, please keep talking, touching, her favorite music in the background. I can attest that she can hear everything that goes on around her. The brain is magnificent--it protects us by shutting down while we cure. My prayers and thoughts are with you, Michael and Daniel, Especially for Natasha, and the remainder of the family. She has touched us, as you have with your extraordinary talents. At Lenox, she is in the best hands, and with her zest for life, and her boyos who are awaiting her return, she will give fight to return as soon as she can. Thank you for loving this very talented, special lady. Know that you all are loved, and I send you my prayers, strength and thoughts for a speedy recovery.

  • Sorry for your loss Mr Neeson. I really enjoyed your wife's movies and she was a wonderful broadway and movie actress. Once again sorry for your loss.
    Robert

  • My thoughts and prayers are with you dear Mr Liam Neeson and family. You and Natasha are my favorite actors...

  • I loved you both in the movie Nell and the most recent I saw of you was Taken, it was an awesome movie. Not a dull moment in the entire film. I watched Les Miserable tonight on DVD...I know that you and Natasha surely had the real thing which is so rare in life I am happy that you had that. No words are adaquate at a time such as this...my thoughts and prayers are with you and your sons.
