Liam Neeson is back after finishing the last and third installment of Taken and this time, his role is yet another special agent for the movie called "Felt." Along with him is actress Diane Lane who is set to play the role of his wife.
Variety reported that "Felt" is a spy thriller created by the genius Peter Landesman. The filming of this project will begin on March of 2016. The story is about the Watergate Break-in and other scandals related to it back in the 70s and Neeson will play the role of a special agent named Mark Felt. It would appear that the actor really does have a knack in playing characters like this, because for those who know him from his work in "Taken," in which his character was a former CIA agent.
Moving on to his new movie, Diane Lane will play Felt's wife named Audrey and since her husband's job is quite dangerous, her character is strong yet ambitious and troubled as per Variety's description. But it would make sense, since she will undergo a lot of stress with what her husband will be dealing with against the White House.
Landesman was reported to not just direct the movie, but he will also shoulder the writing and the entire production. The project will be under MadRiver Pictures, as this is the company who will shed money for it.
Empire Online also published some news regarding the story of Felt and people who have been intrigued about the Watergate break-in scandal would definitely learn more about the Deep Throat source, also known as Felt's character in the movie.
The project is backed up by other huge names in the industry like Ridley Scott, Jay Roach, Michael Schaefer and Steven Marshall just to name a few.
