Cold Pursuit

November 13, 2016

Director Hans Petter Moland

Genre Action | Drama | Thriller

Cast Liam Neeson, Emmy Rossum, Tom Bateman, William Forsythe

Rating R

Release Date February 8th, 2019

“A snowplow driver seeks revenge against the drug dealers he thinks killed his son. Based on the 2014 Norwegian film ‘In Order of Disappearance’.”
“Quiet family man and hard-working snowplow driver Nels is the lifeblood of a glitzy resort town in the Rocky Mountains because he is the one who keeps the winter roads clear. He and his wife live in a comfortable cabin away from the tourists. The town has just awarded him “Citizen of the Year.” But Nels has to leave his quiet mountain life when his son is murdered by a powerful drug lord. As a man who has nothing to lose he is stoked by a drive for vengeance. This unlikely hero uses his hunting skills and transforms from an ordinary man into a skilled killer as he sets out to dismantle the cartel. Nels’ actions ignite a turf war between a manically unpredictable gangster known as Viking and a rival gang boss. Justice is served in one final spectacular confrontation that will leave (almost) no one unscathed.”

From director Hans Petter Moland, Cold Pursuit stars ageless actor Liam Neeson, who is technically 66 but you would be hard pressed to believe that. He is on yet another path of revenge and even though its been done time and time again, I am ready for it. Check out the official trailers below!!

Ted Takes Fun Facts, Cold Pursuit:

  • Director Hans Petter Moland made Cold Pursuit as a remake to his 2014 film In Order of Disappearance (originally titled Kraftidioten), so even though it is a remake it feels like it is made for all of the right reasons.

  • In early 2017, the film was refused a permit to shoot in Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada. The explanation given was that Parks Canada objected to the antagonist of the film being an aboriginal Canadian. Even the actor playing the role, popular aboriginal Canadian Tom Jackson, could not sway the government agency's opinion, and the production was moved out of the park.
