Liam Neeson Joins ‘Thor: Ragnarok’ Stars Chris Hemsworth & Tessa Thompson in ‘Men in Black’ Spinoff
Liam Neeson is teaming up with Thor: Ragnarok stars Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson for the Men in Black spinoff and, damn, this is going to be good.
The Commuter star is in talks to join the upcoming film based on the popular Men in Black franchise, according to Variety. Neeson will portray the head of London’s Men in Black organization and, well, you had us at British accent.
Although the alien-fighting duo from the original movie—Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones—aren’t returning for the spinoff, the film will take place in the same onscreen world. But this time it will focus on Hemsworth and Thompson (you know, Charlotte from Westworld).
Back in March, news broke that the Thor: Ragnarok twosome would star in the new Men in Black film, which is being directed by F. Gary Gray (Straight Outta Compton).
If you need us, we’ll be listening to “Men in Black” by Will Smith on repeat.
