Fans have got the first look at Liam Neeson’s latest action movie as the Northern Irish actor stars alongside Ron Perlman.

Absolution sees the Taken star playing an aging gangster enforcer who apparently “does everything he can to reconnect with his family after years apart from them.”

In the trailer Neeson can be seen doing what he does best as the Hollywood action hero dispatches villains from the criminal underworld.

“When he has to dismantle a rival gang that comes after him, he discovers that it is not so easy to escape from the underworld and build a new life,” the synopsis adds.

Neeson will also Yolonda Ross, William Xifaras, Daniel Diemer, Josh Drennen, Frankie Shaw, Javier Molina, and Jimmy Gonzales.

Absolution is set to release in cinemas from November 1, 2024.

It marks the latest string to Neeson’s bow which has seen him establish himself as an action mainstay after starring in the likes of The Grey, Non-Stop and his latest release In the Land of Saints and Sinners.

The Ballymena actor is also currently in production on Naked Gun before he takes up his Mongoose role – in which he’ll play Ryan “Fang” Flanagan – a war hero accused of a crime he didn’t commit.
