What kind of person is Liam Neeson? He's the kind of person who doesn't particularly like to play games -- unless there was some money involved. Unfortunately, this game might get him arrested and thrown in prison -- or worse, killed!

Check out the first trailer for "The Commuter," an upcoming Hitchcockian thriller set on a moving train, in which Neeson plays an ordinary insurance salesman who, after being approached by a mysterious woman (played by The Conjuring's Vera Farmiga), is offered a chance to earn $75,000 dollars if he can manage to do "just one little thing" -- locate a specific commuter who doesn't belong on the train. Of course, it's not long before the cops get involved, and an explosive mind game ensues between Neeson and Farmiga.

"I am not going to do this. You are trying to set me up," Neeson growls into his cell phone. To which Farmiga replies from the other side of the phone line, "No one forced you to take that money."

Jaume Collet-Serra, the Spanish-born director of the hit shark horror thriller "The Shallows," helms the film, which marks the director's fourth collaboration with Neeson, following the action thrillers "Run All Night," "Non-Stop," and "Unknown."

"The Commuter," which co-stars Elizabeth McGovern, Patrick Wilson, Jonathan Banks, and Sam Neill, will arrive in theaters on January 12, 2018.
