Liam Neeson was known for the Taken franchise. Taken 4 dream trailers were successful in the channel because of how iconic the character Bryan Mills has become. I wanted to make the plot high stakes beyond just Bryan saving his daughter so I made it about him saving the President as well. My Taken 4 concept continues with the same plot of Michael Keaton being the bad guy framing Liam Neeson and the President will be played by Morgan Freeman. We also get to see Pierce Brosnan as the main cop to investigate the truth. I did the wording sequence to highlight all the cast of the dream trailer. My favorite line connection was Liam Neeson saying “If find out you have anything to do with my daughter disappearing your gonna need more men” which I edited to make him talking to Michael Keaton.

I begin the trailer showing Michael Keaton making a mask the resembles the face of Bryan Mills to bring the idea of impersonating him. I connect the scene of Michael Keaton in the car from Spider-Man Homecoming then with a scene of a guy wearing a mask and finally showing Liam Neeson in the car to imply that its Michael heading to the White House. Some of my favorite scene connections include Liam Neeson looking at the laptop showing the news Bryan Mills is wanted. “2 years of practice and planning” line from Pierce Brosnan was perfect to reference the possible framing of Bryan Mills.

I made Michael Keaton part of the meeting to make his character a corrupt cop. For the first time I played the theme song of Taken in the title sequence to end the trailer.
