Liam Neeson Replacing Mel Gibson In The Hangover 2
October 22nd, 2010
Liam Neeson has confirmed that he will replace Mel Gibson in The Hangover 2, telling Variety that he got the call and is headed to Thailand to play a tattoo artist.
Gibson was set to star in the much anticipated sequel, but was unceremoniously dumped after director Todd Phillips admitted that he didn’t have the “full support of my entire cast and crew.”
Neeson was offered the role via Bradley Cooper, his co-star in The A-Team.
“I just got a call to do a one day shoot on Hangover 2 as a tattooist in Thailand, and that’s all I know about it,” Neeson said. “I just laughed my leg off when I saw The Hangover, I was shooting in Berlin earlier this year and rented it on the hotel TV.”
