Liam Neeson cuts a healthier figure as he focuses on fitness in NYC... months after his gaunt appearance sparked concern
Liam Neeson appears to be focusing on building up his slim build again, three months after his gaunt image sparked concern for his welfare.
The 63-year-old actor was looking healthier as he was seen jogging through New York City on Wednesday following reports that he had lost too much weight for his recent movie role.
Taken star Liam, who's expected to star in another action flick in 2016, cut a casual figure as he pounded the pavements at pace near his home; seemingly focusing on fitness once again.

Taking a jog: Liam Neeson took a jog through New York City on Wednesday, looking healthier than in recent months
The actor hid beneath a grey cap with his wispy silver hair just visible from the back as he took a light jog.
He wore gym trousers with sporty trainers but layered on a casual jacket for warmth as he tried to keep his slender silhouette from contact with the cold.
In his concentration, the actor chewed on a tiny tooth pick and held his spectacles with his left hand while out running.

Healthy: Just months after his weight sparked concern, the actor seemed like he was back on track
The actor originally sparked concern for his frame back in July when pictures emerged of him looking particularly gaunt.
His withered appearance, far removed from his action figure image, was blamed on filming for latest release Silence, in which he plays Father Cristovao Ferreira.
The role of tortured priest Cristovao led the method actor to 'shed his beer gut' and commit to losing 60lbs in weight; something that it was later revealed was taken a step too far for the actor.
Concern: In July, the 63-year-old was said to have lost too much late for his movie role in Silence
A spokesman insisted that Neeson's health was not a concern in August, saying: 'He has just completed work on one film and starts another in September' and added 'he couldn't be healthier.'
Liam will need to build back up to his former action hero glory if reports that he will star in new thriller Commuter are to be believed.
Deadline reported in September that the 63-year-old will portray 'a businessman on his daily commute home who unwittingly gets caught up in a criminal conspiracy'.
It's thought that the film, written by Byron Willinger and Phil de Blasi, will begin filming in Spring 2016.
