It will be the actor's first role since his highly controversial comments about having felt violent hatred for black men back in February.
Liam Neeson has returned to Hollywood, taking up a role in the new Men In Black film, Men In Black: International.

In the trailer, Tessa Thompson and Emma Thompson are seen winding their way into the mysterious world set up by the first films, starring opposite two MIB agents played by Neeson and Chris Hemsworth.

He has since offered an apology and cancelled the red carpet event for his last film Cold Pursuit.
