Liam Neeson Will Replace Mel Gibson in The Hangover Sequel

That was fast. Less than 24 hours after Mel Gibson was tossed overboard by Todd Phillips in an effort to keep the cast of The Hangover sequel from outright revolt, a replacement has been named. Liam Neeson, come on down! "I just got a call to do a one day shoot on Hangover 2 as a tattooist in Thailand, and that's all I know about it," Neeson told Variety. The actor was invited to take the role by his A-Team co-star, Bradley Cooper. Excited? Yeah, didn't think so. [Variety]
