LIAM NEESON IN SHOW BAND FILM

Liam Neeson is star in The Virgin of Las Vegas, an affectionate look at Irish show bands, with U2's Bono co-producing.
Neeson, 57, will play an ageing singer living in Las Vegas and spending his days hitting the bottle.
According to Daily Variety he “finds his his life turned on its head following the arrival of a mysterious stranger.”
The script for the $14 million film, written by former Horslips member Barry Devlin, recalls the days before television was universal, when show bands played cover versions of early rock songs and had huge followings across the country.
Bono is producing along with Alan Moloney, head of Parallel Pictures, which is also making the film version of Flann O'Brien's At Swim-Two-Birds.
Neeson is continuing to throw himself into work following the death of his wife, actress Natasha Richardson, after a skiing accident in March.
He is currently filming The A-Team, based on the popular 1980s television series, in Toronto and will not attend the Toronto International Film Festival premiere of Chloe, the film he was shooting when Richardson died, aged 45.
He will once again be the voice of Aslan the lion in the next Chronicles of Narnia film, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and has five more films lined up, including the role of Abraham Lincoln, in Lincoln, directed by Steven Spielberg.
In addition he has finished work on two movies, Clash of the Titans and After Life, to be released next year.
