The renowned “Taken” star raised concerns across various media platforms when he was photographed looking notably frail.
Now appearing more like his usual self, the 63-year-old actor disclosed that shedding 20 pounds was part of his preparation for the Scorsese project titled “Silence,” which revolves around two Jesuit priests encountering persecution in Japan.
During the Los Cabos Film Festival in Mexico last Sunday, Neeson shared that Martin had requested the cast to appear more emaciated for their roles.
Neeson’s gauntness captured headlines back in July, with outlets such as Hollywood Life labeling the Irish actor as “unrecognizable.”
The film’s demands extended to fellow actors Adam Driver and Andrew Garfield, who were also required to undergo weight loss.
Speaking about Driver’s commitment, Neeson mentioned, “I know Adam took it to the extreme.
He’s a former marine and when given an instruction, he sees it through.”
