HORSE: we’re going to be doing a scene together
LIAM NEESON: great
HORSE: hey weren’t you the dude in Taken?
LIAM NEESON: that’s right
HORSE: I thought I knew you from somewhere! https://t.co/qzVz9oqvtb— Marty Lawrence (@TeaAndCopy) October 9, 2018

I am fucking sick of actors getting cast on the basis of what horses they know. https://t.co/HQrw9E9cws

It seems that this isn’t the only time an acting animal has been happy to see an old ally.
This is absolutely true . There’s a horse George who I gave the speech in the forest in Gladiator on. Years later he was on the set of Robin Hood and we would have a chat everyday.
Same with the white horse Rusty in Robin Hood we chatted again on Les Mis. Lifelong friends. https://t.co/LqUxyfAymK— Russell Crowe (@russellcrowe) October 9, 2018
Viggo Mortensen bonded so closely with his horse in LOTR that he adopted him; I believe he did the same with his horse in Hidalgo. They’re remarkable partners with long memories and loyalty.

Let’s hope none of them hold grudges.
