This feels like it's 20 years too late but...we'll see.

I guess you and I have a different definition of the word "tries." The Dark Knight is a superhero film and is more grounded than Cliffhanger. Nolan tried to explained everything to the nth degree. Including why he wears a cape and how it functions and why he chose to represent a bat. Even the batmobile makes practical sense compared to past designs.

Cliffhanger is like John Wick on a mountain with only a wife beater.

Lily James And Pierce Brosnan To Star In New ‘Cliffhanger’ Movie With Jaume Collet-Serra Directing

Quote:

Lily James and Pierce Brosnan are set to star in a new reimagining of the classic action pic Cliffhanger with Jaume Collet-Serra directing. The project is a Rocket Science production in partnership with Thank You Pictures and Supernix.

The original film starred Sylvester Stallone with Renny Harlin directing.

The new script is based on a story by Ana Lily Amirpour.

Brosnan will play seasoned mountaineer Ray Cooper, who operates a luxury chalet in the Dolomites with daughter Sydney. During a weekend trip with a billionaire’s son, they are targeted by a gang of kidnappers. Ray’s daughter Naomi (James), still haunted by a past climbing accident, witnesses the attack and escapes. To save her family, she must confront her fears and fight for survival.

Re-wrote the script and dumped Stallone. It is now Daddy Daughter Die Hard.

Guydowood · 10-31-2024, 05:46 PM

oh yeah, sounds like a real winner

, direct to streaming for sure.....

morris_schaffer · 10-31-2024, 05:53 PM

Back in the Dolomites at least. Wonder how much location work there will be and if they're reusing locations from the 1993 film. Somehow I fear this one's gonna look helluva lot more fake.

DR Herbert West · 10-31-2024, 06:15 PM

There goes my interest.

drb999 · 10-31-2024, 06:59 PM

Damn. I wanted a sequel. But I like Pierce Brosnan and Lily James so I’ll check it out.

BluBonnet · 10-31-2024, 07:47 PM

I'd go climbing with her any time!!

CreasyBear · 11-01-2024, 10:14 AM

A gender swap. How original.

mwynn · 11-01-2024, 01:56 PM

The script probably has not changed that much, even with Stallone the daughter was the lead.

HomerThompson · 11-01-2024, 02:06 PM

So without Stallone they’re still calling it Cliffhanger? Even though now it only relates to that as someone who climbs lol

Was that not why the original movie was called Cliffhanger?

I mean, by that logic you can just call any shark movie Jaws.

The movie is set in the same location as the last. The article did not say what the title of the movie would be.
