NBC's Taken Casts its Lead Role
NBC announced that it is casting British actor Clive Standen as Bryan Mills for its upcoming TV show Taken. The show is based on Luc Besson's Taken movies, but will tell the story of a younger Bryan Mills, presumably when he is learning his 'particular set of skills'.
Clive Standen previously appeared in the TV series Camelot (2011) and the movie Everest (2015). He portrays Rollo in the past 3 seasons of Vikings, with the 4th season airing next month.
It is previously reported that Alex Cary (Homeland) will write the pilot script and executive produce the series and Alex Graves (Game of Thrones) will direct the pilot.
