Liam Neeson – Started At Age 40
Liam Neeson first acted on stage at 11 when his English teacher gave him a title role in a play. He then won arthouse notoriety for critically-acclaimed but underappreciated movies like “The Mission” during the ’80s.
However, it wasn’t until Steven Spielberg’s “Schindler’s List” in 1993 that Liam gained stardom. He was then already in his 40s. After that, he starred in thrillers like “Taken,” and blockbuster flicks like “Star Wars: Episode I.”
