William John Neeson

Liam Neeson has long walked to the heights of fame. But when a lucky chance turned up, he burst into the cinematic world so loudly that everyone understood that a new star had risen. Now Neeson's filmography consists of dozens of melodramas, action movies and thrillers. Some of them were subjected to devastating criticism, some were included in the honorary lists of the best paintings in history. The result is one - the audience does not remain indifferent to the work of an actor, producer and director.

The actor was born in 1952 in Northern Ireland into a poor family of deeply religious Catholics. My father worked as a caretaker at a local school, and my mother worked as a cook. In addition to the son, the parents raised three more daughters. Neeson's name is derived from the Irish form William. And that was also the name of the local priest, who was very respected in the city.

Liam was fond of boxing, in his youth he even won the championship in his weight category. Theater became another passion. The creative biography was initiated by the first major role in a school play.

But Neeson did not have enough time to study. For poor academic performance, he was expelled from Queen's University Belfast, where he studied physics and computer science. The guy worked as a driver, a forklift operator, an assistant architect, a carpenter and at the same time went to auditions.

So Liam got into the theater, but played in episodes. The actor was opened to the audience by John Burman. The director gave Neeson a role in the Oscar-nominated fantasy film Excalibur. The next stage in his career was the pictures "Bounty" and "Mission".

In 1987, the young man decides that the closer he gets to Hollywood, the sooner he will achieve success. In the same year, Liam starred in the leading role in the film "The Suspect" with Cher and Dennis Quaid.

The first hint of recognition is the fantastic detective "Man of Darkness". The artist was nominated for the Saturn Prize. Neeson's finest hour struck in 1993. His participation in the famous drama by Steven Spielberg earned him Oscar, Golden Globe and BAFTA nominations. The Volpi Cup marks Liam's reincarnation as compatriot Michael Collins in the film of the same name by Neil Jordan. The image of the Jedi Knight in the legendary "Star Wars" "cost" the actor another "Saturn".

Harrison Ford later became the hero of this movie saga. Colleagues have worked together on Katherine Bigelow's historic K-19 project. The film is based on the tragic events of the early 60s - an accident on a Soviet submarine.

Next, Neeson's streak of luck went. One famous film with the participation of the actor was replaced by another: ten Oscars-nominated "Gangs of New York", the comedy "Love Real", awarded the Empire magazine. For the biopic Kinsey, Liam nearly won a Golden Globe. The action movie "Hostage" at the box office grossed $ 200 million and marked the beginning of a separate franchise. The leading actor resisted the last fact and conceded for a fee of $ 20 million.

Among the vivid pictures with the name of the star in the credits - the thriller "Fight", the detective "Unknown", the superhero story "Batman Begins". The Irish actor is also organic in the role of the admiral in the action movie "Sea Battle".

In 2017, at the Toronto Film Festival, the movie Watergate: The Wreck of the White House was shown. The actor appeared in the guise of an FBI agent who helped journalists in the investigation, which ultimately led to the resignation of the US president.

The thriller "Passenger" is an attempt to find an answer to the question of how far a person is ready to go for the sake of his own family. According to the plot, Liam's character fights a lot, makes dangerous somersaults. In life, he tries to avoid sharp moments.

A stately man (height 193 cm, weight 97 kg) started his first high-profile romance with Helen Mirren, who had already become popular. The status of the actress, public and financial, dominated the relationship. Liam could not stand female domination, and the couple broke up.
