International trailer shows that certain skills run in the family

A new international trailer for Liam Neeson's fast-paced action movie “Taken 2” has been released. Check it out in full above.

After “Taken” proved a surprise hit with both critics and audiences, virtually establishing Liam Neeson as the new Chuck Norris of action movies, a sequel was greenlit instantly.

We've already seen several photos, trailers and videos for it. However, not releasing a new one now that Neeson is making a surprise cameo in one of this summer's most hyped blockbusters (we're not saying which) would have meant a missed opportunity.

So here it is. It doesn't bring much new footage but it does include plenty of snapped necks, car chases and violence to make it worth your time.

The film also stars Famke Janssen and Maggie Grace, and will be out in October.
