Liam Neeson get's a raise in Taken 3, leaving us all to wonder how many times can kidnapping actually happen inside of one family? The 61 year old actor is currently in final negotiations with EuropaCorp and 20th Century Fox to reprise his role as Bryan Mills in the third installment of the franchise. A source close to Deadline is revealing that Neeson will likely close the deal with a paycheck in the ballpark of $20 million bucks, which is a $5 million dollar raise from what he made in Taken 2. But get this, THR is reporting that Neeson only made around $1 million dollars for the first movie back in 2008. So, the price tag for this part three may have a lot to do with Neeson returning. And after taking a look at the box office numbers, no one should be shocked that a part 3 would happen. The sequel brought in a worldwide gross of around $376 million bucks, and it only cost about $45 million to make. Which topped the first Taken's success, which brought in $226 million with only a $25 million dollar budget.
