Liam Neeson's Snowplow Action Thriller HARD POWDER Has a Release Date

Liam Neeson is making another revenge action thriller called Hard Powder. In this one, the actor plays a badass snowplow operator in Colorado whose life is turned upside down when his son is murdered by the powerful local drug kingpin. So, Neeson sets out on a vengeful crusade and in the process sparks a turf war between a Viking gangster and a Native American mafia boss.

Ya gotta love the action films that Neeson takes on. Summit Entertainment has announced that Hard Powder (I love that title, by the way) will be released on February 8th, 2019 and the movie also stars Emmy Rossum (Shameless), and Laura Dern (Wild). They also released an official synopsis:

Hard Powder follows Nels Coxman (Neeson), a local snowplow operator recently named Citizen of the Year of his small Colorado ski town for keeping the roads open through the winter. Nels’ quiet life with his wife (Dern) abruptly spins out of control when their son is unjustly murdered by a local drug cartel. Taking the law into his own hands with only the tools of an outdoorsman and snowplow driver, Nels sets out to find those responsible but inadvertently ignites a gang war that threatens to engulf the town — unless he ends it first.

The film is based on the 2014 Norwegian film In Order of Disappearance and it was directed by Hans Petter Moland, the Norwegian filmmaker who also directed the original film. 

Are you looking forward to seeing Liam Neeson kick ass as a snowplow driver!?
