Liam Neeson is even cooler than we were previously led to believe: the actor has agreed to make a brief appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, disrobe to his underwear and get soaked to the bone, all in the name of charity.

Check out the video above.

Neeson, who will be seen this month in “Taken 2,” the sequel to the 2009 film that reshaped his career and made him into an action movie star, walked in on the set in a pink robe, with matching pink underwear underneath.

Ellen told him all he had to do was sit on a chair and wait to be drenched in whatever liquid she had prepared for him.

In return, $10,000 (€7,741) would go to a cancer charity. Liam promised to take the robe off if she doubled that money, which Ellen did – and so did he.

Enjoy!
