Liam Neeson and his "Mongoose" co-star Stella Stocker were seen holding hands on the red carpet at the Toronto International Film Festival on Saturday. The actors attended the premiere of "Evil Genius," a film directed by Courteney Cox.
Stocker was observed squeezing Neeson's arm at one point during their red carpet appearance. Neeson, 74, wore a black blazer, black T-shirt, jeans, and brown dress shoes. Stocker chose a black cowl-neck dress and styled her hair up.
Neeson and Stocker are set to star together in the upcoming action thriller "The Mongoose," scheduled for release on October 30. This is not their first collaboration; they also worked together on the 2022 films "Memory," directed by Martin Campbell, and Neil Jordan's crime thriller "Marlowe."
Neeson's appearance with Stocker follows past media attention regarding his interactions with actress Pamela Anderson. The two worked together on the 2025 film "The Naked Gun." Neeson had previously expressed admiration for Anderson, calling her "terrific to work with" and at one point introducing her as the "future Mrs. Neeson." Anderson confirmed they were romantically involved for a brief period after filming, describing it as an "intimate week" at his home in upstate New York. However, an insider later clarified to Page Six that while there was "instant chemistry," their relationship did not develop into an intimate one. Anderson has stated that Neeson remains a supporter of her career and that they will likely remain in each other's lives.
Neeson was married to actress Natasha Richardson from 1994 until her death in 2009. He later dated public relations executive Freya St. Johnston for two years, and has not publicly dated anyone else since then.
