Liam Neeson as Clinch Leatherwood Grimacing in A Million Ways to Die in the West

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The 2014 Liam Neeson Western comedy A Million Ways to Die in the West has become a streaming hit on Netflix. The movie, which was co-written and directed by Seth MacFarlane, was a disappointment, earning a 33% Rotten Tomatoes score in addition to an $87.2 million box office haul that likely didn't earn it a profit given its $40 million budget and publicity costs.

A Million Ways To Die In The West Could Usher In A New Era For Liam Neeson Liam Neeson's Career Is Taking A Turn The Movie Predicted A Decade Ago The Seth MacFarlane comedy, which starred Neeson as the dastardly outlaw Clinch Leatherwood, failed to divert the Oscar-nominated actor's career from the path it was then on, which saw him starring in a variety of action movies in the wake of his 2009 smash hit Taken.

MacFarlane continued to offer Neeson comedy roles including a Ted 2 cameo and an episode of the sci-fi satire show The Orville. Ultimately, those titles and other minor Neeson comedy roles in the mid-2010s were essentially just blips on the radar of his career at the time. However, the newfound streaming success of A Million Ways to Die in the West may have come at the perfect time for the 72-year-old actor to make yet another surprising career pivot.
