## Summary

Liam Neeson says he stays fit for action roles without going to the gym, relying on year-round fitness and daily walks. At 74, he says this helps him return to physical scenes when a script calls for them, and he still enjoys performing some of his own fight sequences.

For “The Mongoose”, Neeson said he increases his workouts slightly when a role requires more physical activity. Director Mark Vanselow praised his commitment and flexibility; the pair have worked together on 30 projects, with Vanselow previously serving as Neeson’s stunt double for nearly 30 years. The film was released in cinemas on 30 October.
