It's fitting that Liam Neeson was asked about his cameo appearance in The Hangover 2 at the premiere of The Next Three Days, if only because his role in The Next Three Days is probably smaller than his role in Todd Phillips' sequel. But was he concerned about taking a part that was previously earmarked for Mel Gibson? Nope! "Apparently, yes [the part was Mel's] -- I didn't realize it at the time," said Neeson. "I spoke to Mel. Mel's cool about it. We're all cool." So, yeah, Neeson is not really up on Internet casting rumors (or the current mindset of Gibson over losing the role), which kinda makes me like Liam Neeson even more. [Access Hollywood]
