10 Movie Sequels FINALLY Happening
3. Cliffhanger 2
Sylvester Stallone doesn't half love a comeback, doesn't he?
Rocky. Rambo. Barney Ross. The action megastar can always be counted on to revisit his greatest hits at some point down the road.
And sure enough, it was recently revealed that the Hollywood legend will once again be returning to one of his previous action-heavy roles in the form of Ranger Gabe Walker in an upcoming Cliffhanger sequel.
Said 1993 action-thriller saw Stallone hanging off many a mountain as his Walker clashed with a group of criminals. And despite now being 76 years old, Sly is unquestionably showing no signs of slowing down with this latest return.
A potential sequel had been dangling in developmental hell for decades, with TriStar said to have been interested in a sequel as far back as 1994. 2008 then saw the project gathering a little momentum again, before a new entry never materialised.
A reimagined, rebooted version of the flick, that would be female-led and boast a cameo appearance from Jason Momoa, was also announced back in 2019.
For now though, it's looking like a legacy sequel will be the new direction for the project going forward, with Greenland's Ric Roman Waugh now directing this long-awaited climb back into theatres.
