EXCLUSIVE: We understand that early development is underway on a sequel to the upcoming reboot of climbing classic, Cliffhanger.
Producers Rocket Science and Thank You Pictures are driving the sequel but it’s not clear at this stage whether any of the cast or creatives will be back.
Lily James and Pierce Brosnan are starring in the reimagining of the classic action pic with Jaume Collet-Serra directing. The film is currently in post. The 1993 original, which took $255M global, starred Sylvester Stallone with Renny Harlin directing.
Hmmm… JCVD was like 57 when he credibly played https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bouncer_(film) … (wtf I can’t add links any more…) … then of course there’s Steven Seagal who’s most recent movie was made when he was round 68… tho I dunno if I’d call him “credible” lol…
I caught Steven Seagal in The Foreigner, one of the worst films I’ve ever been subjected to, on a long-distance coach (i.e. a situation where I couldn’t just change the channel to something else), and already at 52, it seemed like Seagal just stood still while bad guys ran at him and fell over theatrically. :D
Aw yeah there’s a whole industry of videos making fun of Seagal… here’s my favorite… (warning it’s got a lot of profanity) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzIHyF7UWY4 the youtube comments are pretty funny too. I’ve seen a lot of those movies, they aren’t really that bad, but definitely B-movies.
