Liam Neeson joins action film `Run All Night`

Los Angeles: ‘Taken’ star Liam Neeson has signed up for upcoming action film ‘Run All Night’.

The 60-year-old actor is said to have agreed a deal with Warner Bros to start shooting the project in the autumn, reported Deadline. Jaume Collet-Serra is also negotiating a deal to direct the action film. Neeson will play a mob hitman, who is forced to take on his ex-boss over the course of one night. The character also has to protect his family, and finds him on the run from the mob and cops with his son. Neeson and Collet-Serra are currently filming ‘Non-Stop’ for Silver Pictures, while they also worked together on the thriller ‘Unknown’. In ‘Non-Stop’, Neeson plays an air marshal who is forced to take command when a passenger begins making anonymous threats. The first official photo from the project was unveiled last week. PTI
