STAR WARS: Liam Neeson Is Up For A 'Qui-Gon Jinn' Spin-Off

While talking to Yahoo, the Taken 3 actor admits that a return to the galaxy far, far away as deceased Jedi master Qui-Gon Jinn sounds like a "terrific" idea. He also says he's watched the Force Awakens teaser, and has some concerns about that new Lightsaber!

Let's face it, nobody in their right mind thinks The Phantom Menace is a good movie, but Liam Neeson's Qui-Gon Jinn is generally considered to be one of the few bright spots. The character met his end in that film thanks to dual-lightsaber wielding Sith Lord Darth Maul (another highlight), but with all of these planned spin-offs in the pipeline, what about a solo adventure for Master Qui-Gon? Of course there's the possibility that he could return as a "force ghost" in some capacity too, and Liam Neeson seems open to either option. Have a look at his video interview with Yahoo, in which he also shares his concerns about the practicality of the new cross-guard Lighsaber seen in the hand of the mysterious Kylo Ren in the teaser trailer for The Force Awakens.



Starring original cast members Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker and franchise newcomers, John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Gwendoline Christie, Lupita Nyong’o and Max von Sydow, Star Wars Episode VII is set to be released on December 18th, 2015.

I can get behind this… I loved his character, wish he had more action, so him getting a new movie would be cool.
YoYoda and Mace can be giving Dooku and Qui Gon some Jedi missions would be cool.

Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon were the best part of Episode 1. And if Qui-Gon gets a movie Darth Maul better get one too!!

I LOVE DUEL OF FATES!!!!!!!

The scene is great too, but the song!!!

Phantom Menace is easily the best Star Wars movie. The originals are bloody terrible, and Clones and Sith were destroyed by Hayden Christensen (a disgrace to Canadians).

Darth Maul, Obi-Wan, and Qui-Gon Jin were the highlights of the entire franchise. Along with Yoda, Yoda rules.

Thanks! :-) All I know is that they didn't make The All Hail The King One Shot for nothing. They'll introduce him at some stage.

He's far too old to get away with it being a prequel. And since he's dead it can't be a sequel.

Lian Neeson doesn't deserve to profit another cent from Star Wars - whenever asked about it he has slagged it off and been derisory about his experience filming the prequels just like Ewan McGregor has (McGregor more so). Yes the prequels were total shit, yes I'm sure filming under Lucas' green-screen obsessed digital direction must of been hell - but few things wind me up more than actors speaking highly of the films before release and then slagging them off and their acting experience in them, when the film turns out to be an abject failure.

If they want to continue the story of these characters, maybe they should try and NOT kill them off.

But god damn, look how [frick]ing stupid Miles Teller's tie is.
