Liam Neeson portrayed Oskar Schindler in Steven Spielberg’s groundbreaking film “Schindler’s List,” and he is also renowned for his role as Brian Mills in the “Taken” series, an action hero for the ages. His IMDb profile boasts a wealth of unforgettable characters across various genres, solidifying him as a pop culture icon. To top it all off, he’s played both a Jedi Master and a renowned Batman villain! Now, Neeson has taken on the role of Frank Drebin Jr., and recently spoke with GQ about his extensive career. While there are many fascinating tidbits in this interview for film enthusiasts to appreciate, the undoubtedly best moment was when Neeson brilliantly impersonated “Star Wars'” Watto.
Especially because he has no idea who or what Watto is.
Liam Neeson, the lead actor in the latest “Naked Gun” movie, recently had an engaging chat with GQ magazine, where he delved into his most memorable roles. Naturally, our team at TopMob found his thoughts on “Star Wars: The Phantom Menace” and “Batman Begins” particularly intriguing. He didn’t hold back in discussing his experiences in a galaxy far, far away. Neeson recounted how George Lucas expressed discomfort with directing actors, shared tales about preparing for lightsaber fights, explained why his character’s demise was underwhelming, hinted at reprising Qui-Gon Jinn in “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” and more. He also revealed how Christopher Nolan convinced him to play Ra’s al Gul in “Batman Begins” and why he never anticipated the film’s success.
Instead of contemplating his personality, the most notable moment occurred when he mimicked Watto and those tiny wings of his. It’s not like he recognizes who Watto is. He merely understood he was engaging frequently with a character that happened to fly.
Forget the wings, he nailed the face.
There’s no way we’ll be able to view Qui-Gon interacting with Watto again without immediately recalling that iconic impression, right? It’s as impossible as a legendary figure in pop culture replicating another legendary performance.
