‘Ice Road: Vengeance’ Trailer: Liam Neeson Fights Baddies on the Road to Everest in Action Sequel

Liam Neeson’s Mike McCann is back—and once again, he just can’t catch a break. The trailer for Ice Road: Vengeance, the sequel to 2021’s The Ice Road, has arrived, and things are looking predictably grim for the gravel-voiced trucker.

This time, McCann finds himself in Nepal, travelling to scatter his brother’s ashes near Mt. Everest. But what starts as a quiet moment of closure quickly descends into chaos when the tour bus he’s on is hijacked by armed mercenaries with a kidnapping plan. Among the passengers: the son of a local governor—an unfortunate detail that turns the bus into a rolling target.

Again written and directed by Jonathan Hensleigh (also: director of 2004’s The Punisher, writer of Die Hard: With a Vengeance, co-writer of Armageddon), the sequel trades icy Canadian terrain for dizzying cliffside roads. McCann teams up with his mountain guide Dhani (Fan Bingbing) to take on a crew of heavily armed goons. Save for a new setting, it’s a pretty familiar-looking Neeson actioner: vehicle chases, gritted teeth, a few one-liners, a lot of bullets, some questionable visual effects.
