WATCH: Liam Neeson will get his revenge in Clash of Clans

 

 

If you own a mobile device, phone, or tablet, chances are you’ve come across the free massive multiplayer online strategy game called “Clash of Clans,” where the objective is to build your community, train soldiers, and pit them against opponents to earn more gold and elixir to expand your defenses.

The game has proven so popular that it has literally expanded to the big leagues, producing an advertisement in one of the biggest annual spectacles in America—the Super Bowl.

 

In what is certainly one of the most talked-about ads from the “Big Game,” this particular “Clash of Clans” spot showcases not only showcases the game’s luscious cinematics at play, but also revealing an unexpected Hollywood action star playing the game and being defeated soundly at the same time.

 

That actor is none other than “Taken” star Liam Neeson.

 

After getting his ass handed down to him by user “BigBuffetBoy85,” Neeson speaks in a manner that’s very much a nod to his character, ex-CIA agent Bryan Mills from the “Taken” films. 

 

Happening in the midst of a coffee shop while waiting for his take out order, Neeson then proclaims that “AngryNeeson52” will have his revenge—pretty much showing that this is one man you don’t want to cross at all.

 

As one of the most respected talents and recently popular actions stars of today, Liam Neeson has had quite the illustrious career when it comes to signature roles that see him kick butt onscreen.

In 1990, he played the tragically disfigured Dr. Peyton Westlake, who became the identity-switching vigilante known as Darkman. Later, in 1993, he landed the critically acclaimed role of Oskar Schindler in Steven Spielberg’s "Schindler’s List." In 1999, he started the path of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker as Master Qui-Gon Jinn of the Jedi Order in "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace." In 2005, he played the dual role of Ducard/Ra’s Al Ghul—the man who trained and became the mentor of Christian Bale’s Bruce Wayne/Batman in "Batman Begins." He would then reprise the latter role in 2012’s "The Dark Knight Rises," helping bring Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight Trilogy full circle and to a proper close. — TJD, GMA News
