Neeson: I was afraid new movie was too similar to 'Taken'

Liam Neeson is wary of accepting roles in films similar to 'Taken'.

Neeson, 62, has enjoyed huge success with the franchise, which sees him play the role of a retired CIA operative, but the Irish star admits he was initially reluctant to accept a role in new film 'A Walk Among the Tombstones' because he thought it was too similar to 'Taken'.
