According to an interview with Liam Neeson in The Independent, he and fellow Irishman Bono — you know, that guy whose album you just deleted from your iPhone — have teamed up for a new film project: “[Bono and I] chat, or with him a lot of the time I just listen. He’s a wonderful man. He’s got an idea for a script which we’ve been working on for the past six years,” said Neeson, explaining that the story is inspired by the phenomenon of the ‘70s Irish show bands that toured the country doing covers of international hits. It’s not clear yet whether Neeson would star in the movie, but if he does, we assume he will play a man with a very particular set of skills (musical skills).
