Liam Neeson Doesn't Play Around In New 'Taken 2' Trailer

Posted byBy ABS Contributor | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Taken 2 trailer number two has been released and it features Liam Neeson doing what he does best — ass kicking.

In the upcoming sequel, we see  former CIA operative Bryan Mills (Neeson) on the war path to retrieve his kidnapped wife (Famke Janssen) with the help of his daughter (Maggie Grace).

In the original Taken movie Mills laid a bunch of bodies to rest on the way to rescuing his daughter from kidnappers. The new Taken 2 trailer reveals that Mills was on a blissful vacation with his family in Istanbul when he and his wife are taken by the revenge-driven father of his daughter’s  kidnapper, who is not too happy he slayed his son.

We also can tell from the trailer that Mills escapes rather quickly and recruits his daughter to go after his abductors and get his wife back. Just like  the first installment, he embarks on a killing spree filled with neck-snapping action that includes car chases, explosions and his trademark throat punches.

Taken 2  is directed by Olivier Megaton and hits U.S. theaters on October 5th 2012.

Check out the  new Taken 2 trailer below and see all the action for yourself.

 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
