Liam Neeson Is Seeking “Retribution”

Nimrod Antal (“Predators”) has been set to direct Liam Neeson in the thriller “Retribution” for Studiocanal, The Picture Company and Ombra Productions.

A remake of acclaimed Spanish film “El Desconocido,” the “Speed”-like film stars Neeson as a businessman who discovers that a bomb has been planted in the car he’s driving by an unknown assailant – one who tells the driver to execute a series of commands throughout the day or the bomb will be detonated.

Making things worse, the businessman is accompanied in the car by his family. Chris Salmanpour and Andrew Baldwin penned the script while Salmanpour, Baldwin, Jaume Collet-Serra and Juan Sola produce.
