Row K Entertainment has secured the U.S. distribution rights for the reboot of ‘Cliffhanger,’ featuring Pierce Brosnan and Lily James. The film is currently in post-production and is set for a theatrical release in 2026.

Row K Entertainment has acquired the U.S. distribution rights for “Cliffhanger,” a reimagining of the 1993 classic film directed by Jaume Collet-Serra. This new version of the live-action thriller features Pierce Brosnan and Lily James in leading roles.

This acquisition marks Row K Entertainment’s third deal since its launch in August, following other notable acquisitions such as Gus Van Sant’s “Dead Man’s Wire,” which stars Bill Skarsgård, Dacre Montgomery, Cary Elwes, Myha’la, Colman Domingo, and Al Pacino, and Tom Dean and Mac Eldridge’s “Charlie Harper,” featuring Nick Robinson and Emilia Jones.

“Cliffhanger” is currently in post-production and is expected to be released in theaters in 2026. The film follows seasoned mountaineer Ray Cooper (played by Brosnan), who runs a luxury chalet in the Dolomites with his daughter, Sydney. The plot unfolds during a weekend trip with a billionaire’s son, where they become targets of a kidnapping gang. Naomi (James), Ray’s daughter, who is still affected by a past climbing accident, witnesses the attack and must confront her fears to save her family.

The screenplay for “Cliffhanger” was written by Ana Lily Amirpour, Sascha Penn, Mark Bianculli, and Melanie Toast. The film is produced by Lars Sylvest of Thank You Pictures, Joe Neurauter of Supernix, Thorsten Schumacher of Rocket Science, and Neal Moritz and Toby Jaffe. The acquisition was negotiated by CAA Media Finance, which represents the domestic rights, while Rocket Science is handling international sales.
