Liam Neeson is taking a break from his usual set of thrillers to join another sci-fi franchise. The actor best known for his roles in the Star Wars, Dark Knight and Taken series, as well as his Oscar-nominated performance in Schindler's List, is in talks to join the Men In Black spin-off/reboot, possibly titled Mib, which is coming to theaters next year. According to Variety, Neeson would play the head of the UK office of the Mib, basically the British counterpart to Rip Torn's character in the original trilogy. Presumably this will be a comedic part for the generally serious actor, though he could also be a straight man opposite the movie's two standout leads.
