Gerard Butler ("Law Abiding Citizen", "Has Fallen" Trilogy) and Morena Baccarin ("Deadpool"") are set to reunite with director Ric Roman Waugh ("Angel Has Fallen", "Shot Caller") for "Greenland: Migration", the sequel to the 2020 disaster thriller "Greenland".
In a continuation of the story, the Garrity family, who survive a near-extinction level event when an interstellar comet hits the earth, must leave the safety of the Greenland bunker and embark on a perilous journey across the decimated frozen wasteland of Europe to find a new home. Butler reprises his role as structural engineer John Garrity alongside Baccarin as Allison Garrity.
Principal photography is scheduled for 2022.
The first feature, Greenland, defied global box office expectations when it debuted last summer to impressively robust box office numbers amidst worldwide lockdowns and limited theatre capacity. The film launched at the #1 spot theatrically in over 26 countries including Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and Russia.
Following the U.S. and international theatrical roll-out by STX, the film debuted digitally on SVOD followed by an exclusive run in the U.S. on HBO Max. The critically lauded film, praised for bringing an engaging human story backdrop to the disaster film format, topped the rental features VOD list on both Apple and Google Play at a premium rental price.
Here is what director Ric Roman Waugh had to say about the project:
"Greenland spoke to our humanity in the middle of a global catastrophic event, highlighting what people are capable of doing to one another, both good and bad, when it’s life or death. The irony is we made the first film pre Covid and watched many situations come to reality. I’m really looking forward to the next chapter of The Garritys post the first extinction event."
