Pierce Brosnan is ready to rock with their reboot of CLIFFHANGER, following his role in the historical action film FAST CHARLIE (2024), in which he played a hitman seeking revenge.

Principal photography commenced in Austria for an updated take on the 1993 film of the same name that starred Sylvester Stallone. Jaume Collet-Serra directs the new movie that is planning a theatrical release and hails from Rocket Science, in partnership with Thank You Pictures and Supernix.

The CLIFFHANGER reboot centers on mountaineer Ray Cooper (Brosnan), who runs a chalet with his daughter in the Dolomites, a mountain range in Italy. When the pair are kidnapped, older daughter Naomi (James) — still dealing with trauma from a previous climbing incident — must overcome her past to save her family.

The original CLIFFHANGER hit theaters in May 1993 from TriStar Pictures and collected $255 million at the global box office. Stallone starred for director Renny Harlin as a mountain climber enlisted to help track down suitcases full of stolen cash in the Rocky Mountains.

In recent years, Brosnan has maintained a strong presence in both film and television. He starred in the musical sequel MAMMA MIA HERE WE GO AGAIN (2018), reprising his role from the 2008 hit. He also took on the role of Eli McCullough in the western drama series THE SON (2017-2019), showcasing his ability to lead a TV series.

The actor’s involvement in Ritchie’s new series, which was initially developed as a spinoff of RAY DONOVAN but has since been reworked into a standalone project, demonstrates Brosnan’s continued appeal in high-caliber productions. The series, focusing on generations of gangsters and their complex relationships, promises to be a compelling addition to Brosnan’s filmography.

This new role aligns with Brosnan’s track record of choosing diverse and intriguing projects, solidifying his status as a versatile and in-demand actor well into his career.
