Lily James and Pierce Brosnan Starring in New CLIFFHANGER Movie With Jaume Collet-Serra Directing
Lily James (Baby Driver, The Iron Claw) and Pierce Brosnan (Mrs. Doubtfire, Tomorrow Never Dies) are set to star in a new reimagining of the classic action pic Cliffhanger with Jaume Collet-Serra directing. The film will reunite the pair after they worked together on the film Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again in 2018.
The new script is based on a story by Ana Lily Amirpour, in which “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.”
Nell Tiger Free, Franz Rogowski, Shubham Saraf, Assaad Bouab, Suzy Bemba and Bruno Gouery will also appear in movie.
The movie is aiming for a theatrical release with Rocket Science handling international sales and CAA Media Finance representing North American and Chinese territories.
Rocket Science has a partnership agreement with Studiocanal for the film’s rights.
