Cliffhanger

Running time: 0 mins

Cliffhanger returns to cinemas with a modern reimagining of the legendary 1993 action thriller that made Sylvester Stallone a mountain-climbing action hero and delivered one of the most nerve-shredding opening scenes in blockbuster history. Directed by action specialist Jaume Collet-Serra (The Shallows, The Commuter, Black Adam), the new film shifts the story to the dramatic peaks of the Italian Dolomites and introduces a new generation of climbers caught in a deadly high-altitude crisis. The film stars Lily James (Baby Driver, Cinderella, Pam & Tommy) as Naomi Cooper, a skilled climber who has stepped away from the mountains after a traumatic accident. When ruthless criminals take hostages during a luxury alpine retreat run by her father, played by Pierce Brosnan (GoldenEye, Mamma Mia!), Naomi is forced to confront both the towering landscape and the fears she thought she had left behind. The original Cliffhanger became a defining action film of the 1990s, grossing over $250 million worldwide and becoming famous for its spectacular practical stunts and breathtaking mountain photography. This new version aims to recapture that visceral thrill with modern filmmaking while keeping the franchise?s signature element: real climbers performing dangerous sequences on actual mountains rather than relying heavily on CGI. Lily James reportedly underwent intense climbing training to perform many of the film?s sequences herself, helping deliver the kind of authentic, edge-of-your-seat spectacle that made the original so memorable. Combining high-stakes action, survival drama and jaw-dropping alpine locations, Cliffhanger promises a tense and exhilarating return to one of cinema?s most vertigo-inducing action worlds.
