Liam Neeson’s action movie shape doesn’t require time in the gym.

During an interview with Fox News Digital, the actor, who stars in the newly released movie “The Mongoose,” discussed how he stays in such good shape at 74.

“No, I don’t go to a gym at all, but it behooves me, any actor or actress playing a lead, it behooves you to have a level of fitness,” Neeson said. “You don’t have to spend two hours in the gym every day. I used to, many years ago, but I keep reasonably fit.” 

Neeson said that staying in shape year round allows him to jump back into action scenes for movies.

“If I read a script, or Mark [Vanselow, director of ‘The Mongoose’]  sends me a script and there’s physical action sequences, I like doing my own fights. I can still do them up to a point,” he said. “If there’s physical stuff like that then, I’ll increase my physical workout activity a little bit.”

“You don’t have to spend two hours in the gym every day. I used to, many years ago, but I keep reasonably fit.”

The biggest change Neeson has made to his fitness routine as he’s gotten older has been incorporating daily walks.

“I think, just generally the importance of it. Should it just be a walk every day — you know what I mean? And you know, I’m so lucky. I’m 74 years of age, and I’m so lucky to occasionally still get offered this type of role,” Neeson said, referring to his latest movie, “The Mongoose.”

“As far as the amount of training it requires and the time you put in,” Vanselow added. “And then being willing to be flexible in that and try to create something new all the time, which is, you, I think what we’re both trying to do with some of this action, but in movies in general.”
