Liam Neeson

Liam Neeson says he is still 'bemused' by all the action roles that he is offered.

Neeson may be sixty one, but he will be showing his action man credential again this week in Non-Stop.

Non Stop follows on from the likes of Taken, Taken 2 and Unknown, and Neeson still can't believe all these roles are coming his way.

Speaking to the Telegraph, the actor said: "I’m still very bemused by it, especially if I get a script I like and the main character is described as 32 or 33 years of age.

"I tell my agent I’m too old for the lead and he says, 'Don’t worry, it will be changed.'

"And a couple of months later the same script comes back but the character is described as in his mid-fifties. That’s quite funny."

Non-Stop will see Neeson reunite with Unknown filmmaker Jaume Collet-Serra, while Julianne Moore is also on the cast list.

And 2014 is set to be a busy year for the actor as he has also completed work on A Million Ways to Die in the West, A Walk Among The Tombstones, and Run All Night.

Non-Stop is released 28th February.
