Liam Neeson: Walks first on red carpet since wife's death

Irish actor Liam Neeson has walked on the red carpet for the first time on Tuesday night since the death of his actress wife Natasha Richardson in March.

The 57 year old Neeson walked on the carpet at a screening of his new film "Five Minutes of Heaven".

The Oscar-nominated actor was asked by the press, "what his version of heaven would be?"

Neeson, the father of two children with Richardson, replied that it's being with his boys and he's "kind of living it at the moment".

"Five Minutes of Heaven" is scheduled to come out on August 21, 2009. In the movie, Neeson played the role of Alistair Little, a former member of an outlawed Northern Ireland paramilitary group who's haunted by memories of murder.

Natasha Richardson died on March 18, 2009 following a head injury sustained when she fell during a skiing lesson in Quebec.
