MMA fighter Quinton `Rampage` Jackson recently shared details about his time working with actor Liam Neeson on the film “The A-Team.”
Known for his impressive mixed martial arts career, Jackson established himself as a formidable force, defeating many notable opponents with his powerful strikes. His tough persona and fighting spirit made him a natural fit for the character of B. A. Baracus, a role he tackled with confidence.
While his MMA career included highlights like sparring with Michael Bisping and winning a UFC championship, Jackson considers acting alongside a major Hollywood star like Neeson a truly memorable experience.
Working with Liam Neeson Was a Great Experience for Jackson
Jackson thoroughly enjoyed his time on the set of “The A-Team,” sharing the screen with talented actors like Bradley Cooper and Sharlto Copley. However, collaborating with Liam Neeson was particularly significant for Jackson, who valued the advice and insights from the veteran actor.
In a recent interview, Jackson stated, “Liam Neeson is great. I learned so much from working with Liam, in front of and behind the camera. He`s a great actor. He`s a good guy.” He added, “I love Liam Neeson. It was an honor just to work beside him.”
Did `Rampage` Jackson Ask Out a Famous Co-Star?
While filming primarily focused on the movie production, Jackson admits he developed feelings for one of his fellow actors. They spent time together off-set, even playing video games like Call of Duty, which led to Jackson developing a significant crush.
Jackson later discussed in an interview whether he actually asked this co-star out for a date.
