**”Cliffhanger” Sequel Already in Early Development Despite Reboot Still in Post-Production**

**HOLLYWOOD (Deadline) -** Even before audiences get a chance to see the reboot of the 1993 action classic “Cliffhanger,” plans for a sequel are already underway. Producers Rocket Science and Thank You Pictures are reportedly spearheading the early development of the project.

The reboot, directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, stars Lily James and Pierce Brosnan. Brosnan plays Ray Cooper, a mountaineer running a chalet in the Dolomites with his daughter Sydney. When a billionaire’s son is kidnapped, Naomi (James), Ray’s daughter, haunted by a past climbing accident, must confront her fears to save her family.

While the reboot is still in post-production, aiming for a theatrical release with IMAX elements, the rapid move toward a sequel signals strong confidence in the reimagining. Rocket Science is handling international sales, and CAA Media Finance is representing North American and Chinese territories. Discussions are ongoing at the TIFF market. It is currently unknown if any of the cast or creatives involved in the reboot will return for the sequel.

The original “Cliffhanger,” starring Sylvester Stallone, grossed $255 million worldwide. Stallone is not involved in the current reboot or the planned sequel.
