Liam Neeson will star in Peter Berg’s BATTLESHIP

Sep 08

Most know him as ‘That Guy From Schindler’s List‘, ‘That Guy in The Phantom Menace‘, or, more recently ‘That Guy From Taken or The A-Team‘. Soon, Liam Neeson will also be ‘That Guy From Battleship‘ as Deadline Hollywood confirms the actor has signed on to Peter Berg‘s action-thriller board game adaptation. They reveal:

Neeson will play Admiral Shane, the Naval officer whose daughter (played by Brooklyn Decker) is engaged to a young naval officer (played by Taylor Kitsch).

Last week the first images hit the web of singer Rihanna on set of the film, dressed in uniform and looking confused.

Just to confirm, yes– this is a spin-off of Hasbro’s Battleship game you played as a kid–but in name only, apparently.

Battleship isn’t pencilled for release until 18 May 2012.
