Micheál Richardson – Liam Neeson’s Son

Being born with two renowned actors as parents, Micheál Richardson was able to inherit their good looks. His father, William John Neeson, is the recipient of so many award nominations, including a BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, three Golden Globe Awards for Best Actor in a Motion Picture Drama, and an Academy Award for Best Actor. He was renowned as one of the highest-grossing actors of all time. He married the late English actress Natasha Richardson on July 3, 1994. They had two sons, Daniel and Micheál.

Given the fact that Micheál’s parents are both renowned actors, it shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone if he wanted to pursue an acting career as well. When Liam found out about his son’s career decisions, he was initially against it, noting that the rejections and the high degree of challenges that would come in his chosen career path are difficult to overcome. In 2018, Micheál reportedly formally changed his surname to Richardson as an homage to his late mother.
