Liam Neeson Prank Calls Taken Daughter's Ex-Boyfriend

Proof that Taken's Liam Neeson is the best movie dad ever-he's willing to play the father to on-screen daughter, Maggie Grace, whether the film is rolling or not.

In a recent interview with Grace, who plays Neeson's daughter in the Taken franchise, the actress shares how he managed to cheer her up while nursing a broken heart.

After telling him all about her recent heart ache, he apparently responded - "we have to set this kid straight," at which point Neeson picks up the phone and calls Grace's ex.

Fortunately, the actress had a recording of the hilarious and somewhat touching gesture.

"This is Brian Mills," the Oscar nominee said, speaking in the infamous tone that his Taken character is known for. "We've never met, and if you play your cards right, we never will."

"Now listen (bleeped out expletive) you're lower than pond scum so I'm just going to say this once. You've made two mistakes: Your first mistake was dating out of your league. Your second mistake, well, let's just say any more mistakes and I'll break your other arm - slowly.

"I don't need to say it, but I have a particular set of skills," Neeson quoted his character."And I don't want to waste them on you," the actor concluded. "Now get your s--t together."

Grace and her favorite on-screen dad will next be seen in the third installment of the Taken trilogy. The film is premised once again on Bryan Mills, the ex-government operative who must tap on his specific set of skills to prove his innocence in the murder of his wife, Lenore.

The film opens on January 9, 2015.
