Hollywood star Liam Neeson will attend the UAE premiere of his latest film, Taken 3, on January 12 at the Novo Cinemas Cineplex in Dubai. The film, the third and final instalment in the hugely successful series, will see Neeson back as Bryan Mills, a retired CIA operative, who sets out to avenge the death of a loved one.

The first two Taken films have together grossed more than $600 million (Dh2.2 billion) in the global box office.

Neeson, who found fame after his role in Steven Spielberg’s Oscar-winning film Schindler’s List in 1993, saw a resurgence in his career as an action star when Taken was released in 2008.

Neeson will also be soon seen in the film version of the hit TV series Entourage.

Tickets to the Dubai premiere, priced Dh100, are now on sale on novocinemas.com.
