"How much Percy content have we covered? Put it this way: If you were following along in the book, we have pretty much filmed through chapter 9 in The Lightning Thief," he wrote.
#THIEF IN THE NIGHT FILM UPDATE#
The birthday celebration came less than a week after Riordan gave an update on how far along the filming process is. "We are just in the stage of dailies and 'rough assemblages' of the early episodes, which are very much like the first drafts of my novels - I would never share them with anyone because they are not ready for prime time! Maybe for his birthday next year, it will be a different story, but that's not a promise." "Sorry, it is still way, way, way too early for that," Riordan wrote. Riordan also shared the image on his blog, along with a warning that fans shouldn't expect to see a trailer anytime soon. "Honest Thief" will be released theatrically starting October 16.🐐 /Po3J0xFBWC- Percy Jackson August 19, 2022 Who could possibly be left for him to find or hunt down? It's nice to know that Neeson hasn't totally committed himself solely to these easy paycheck movies but perhaps it's officially time to let them go. In Neeson's defense, he does step outside of the gun-toting genre every once and while, including two times this year with the soapy but effective "Ordinary Love" and the well-meaning but unsuccessful "Made in Italy," in which he co-starred with his real-life son. A 95-minute action-thriller doesn't have to break new ground, but it should never feel as dull as "Honest Thief" does. "Honest Thief" fits Neeson like a glove, but perhaps the glove is getting a bit worn because any action or would-be thrills feel stale and completely routine, rarely allowing any surprise or excitement. Jeffrey Donovan and Robert Patrick star as the FBI officers he tries to make a deal with, and Jai Courtney and Anthony Ramos co-star as the agents with a different agenda.Īs you can expect, things don't go smoothly for Tom has he tries to start a new life with his girlfriend Annie (Kate Walsh), but he is determined to clear his name and make amends so they can live together without any secrets. The feds have grown accustom to false confessions regarding this case.
He tries to turn himself in but it's not that easy. Tom wants to clear his conscience and confess to the robberies. In director Mark Williams' "Honest Thief," Neeson plays Tom, an elusive bank robber the FBI has dubbed the "In and Out Bandit." He's meticulous and successful - stealing $9 million from various banks - but has eluded punishment throughout his criminal career. "Honest Thief" resides in a bland purgatory between these groups. Sometimes these films worked really well (2014's "A Walk Among the Tombstones" and 2015's "Run All Night"), and other times his movies have felt like factory-made action pictures (2011's "Unknown," 2018's "The Commuter" and last year's dismal "Cold Pursuit"). Of course, its success spawned two terrible sequels and an entire universe that required the actor to run from or towards generic bad guys.

Neeson has always worked consistently but in 2009 he felt like a new movie star with "Taken," which was a surprise hit very early on that year. His latest, " Honest Thief" feels like just another outing for a Neeson on a mission movie and its bland routineness is its biggest downfall. But he didn't put the gun down for very long - or at all - because just in the last few years he's made movies like "Cold Pursuit" and "The Commuter," which all fit into the "Taken"-esque world Neeson invented for himself when he rebranded as an action star.
Once upon a time, not too long ago, Liam Neeson claimed he was going to give up doing action movies.
