Liam Neeson's new action movie Retribution has confirmed a Sky Cinema release, with a first thrilling trailer debuting too.
The upcoming film sees the Taken star play a US businessman in Berlin who receives a call one day while driving his kids to school – there's a bomb underneath his seat that will detonate unless he carries out a series of tasks.
Going by the trailer, we're set for a tense ride, as the star declares at one point: "There's one thing you didn't think about – what a man will do when he's got nothing to lose."

"Trapped in their car in a high-speed chase across the city, Matt must follow the stranger's increasingly dangerous instructions in a race against time to protect his family and solve the mystery that plays out over the course of one day."
