From the green landscapes of Northern Ireland to the star-studded Hollywood, Liam Neeson has carved a name for himself in the world of cinema. Born on June 7, 1952, as William John Neeson OBE, he began his acting journey with the Lyric Players’ Theatre in Belfast in 1976.
His career spans over four decades and includes an impressive array of roles ranging from Excalibur (1981) to Steven Spielberg’s Schindler’s List (1993), which earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor.
Neeson further solidified his place in pop culture by taking on blockbuster roles such as Qui-Gon Jinn in Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace (1999), Ra’s al Ghul in Batman Begins (2005), and Aslan in The Chronicles of Narnia trilogy (2005–2010). He also demonstrated his versatility by starring in romantic comedies like Love Actually (2003) and dramas like Kinsey (2004). In recent years, he became synonymous with action thrillers through films like Taken series and collaborations with director Jaume Collet-Serra.
Beyond his film career, Neeson is known for his stage work. He made his Broadway debut in 1993 with Anna Christie earning a Tony Award nomination. Offstage, he led a personal life marked by love and loss – from living with actress Helen Mirren during the early ’80s to marrying Natasha Richardson and becoming a father to two sons.
