Neeson and Grace return in new action-packed ‘Taken 2′ trailer

He’s punched wolves, destroyed most of France single-handedly and tore his way through Germany. Now Liam Neeson is back in the role that reinvigorated his career as a hard-boiled man of action. In Taken 2, Neeson returns as Bryan Mills, now a target himself of the bad guys who want revenge for the carnage he caused the first go-round.

Oliver Megaton’s new film gets a trailer filled with action and some hints about where the story will go. I’m happy to see that it’s a real continuation of the story–flipping the roles of Mills and his daughter, played by Maggie Grace–instead of another scneario where Neeson must essentially repeat the actions of the first picture.

Get your Taken 2 fix below and let us know what you think? Are you looking forward to Maggie Grace risking life and limb to reclaim her dad and mum? Neeson’s Mills will no doubt have plenty of tricks up his sleeve as well.

Taken 2 releases October 5th in the U.S.
