Yep, very particular set of skills transformed Neeson once known for his dramatic work into an action star.
The sequel sees the father (Rade Serbedzija) of one of the men Neeson's character killed in the first film seeking revenge; he takes Bryan and his wife (Famke Janssen) hostage during their family vacation in Istanbul, Bryan enlists Kim (Maggie Grace) to help them escape, and uses the same tactic to get his family to safety.
Of the plot of the film, Neeson said:
I've taken a job over in Istanbul looking after a sheik who is there, and afterward I discover that my wife's going through a very bad time with her new husband. So I suggest she and my daughter come over for a few days and hang out with me in this amazing city. And then…all this s—t happens, of course.
