This time Murad (Rade Sherbedgia), the brutal father of one of the kidnappers slain by Bryan Mills (Neeson) in the first Taken. In retaliation, he takes Mills and his wife hostage, and so their daughter is enlisted to help save them.
Neeson explains “The action is supposed to take place about a year or a year and a half after the first story. It’s a very clever sequel with the usual thrills and spills, but the ante is upped quite a bit in this one… I took out a lot of Albanian guys [in the first film] – smugglers and sex traffickers. They met grisly ends. So now it’s their uncles, brothers, fathers, who have motive to find this guy, come hell or high water.”
So who is the person taken this time out?
“I’m taken - let’s put it that way. They kidnap him to humiliate him, torture him, and ultimately bring him back to the village in Albania where the boys from the original film came from. With the help of my daughter…she wants to help me escape from where these bad guys have me.”
Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen co-wrote the script.
