Liam Neeson is reportedly closed a near $20 million deal to return as Bryan Mills, the retired CIA agent who likes to beat up bad guys.
The deal comes as Grace books a leading role in CBS' untitled Wall Street drama pilot, a role that required schedule juggling so that she could shoot the sequel.
Forest Whitaker also stars.
No word yet whether Famke Janssen will be back as Mills' wife.
"Taken 2" helmer Olivier Megaton will return to direct while Luc Besson and Robert Mark Kamen are back working on the script.
Beeson will produce the film.
Production aims to begin shortly.
The first "Taken" had good reviews and took in $226 million worldwide from a $25 million budget. Taken 2 despite having poor reviews, still made an impressive $376 million from its $45 million budget.
