Filming on the 2020 action thriller “Greenland: Migration,” starring Gerard Butler, is scheduled to begin in London, England at an unspecified time. The film is set five to seven years after the events of the first movie and centres on the fallout from the devastating comet collision that ended the Earth. In order to find a new home, Butler’s John Garrity and his family, along with other survivors, leave their shelter in Greenland and set out on a treacherous trek across the devastated icy wastes of Europe.
The sequel is being directed by Ric Roman Waugh, who also helmed the first movie. Waugh and Butler worked together on the 2019 political thriller “Angel Has Fallen” and the 2023 espionage thriller “Kandahar.” His other recent film projects as a filmmaker are “Shot Caller” and “National Champions.” Chris Sparling, who also wrote the script for the first film, is the writer of the film. His most recent writing endeavours are titled “Down a Dark Hall,” “The Desperate Hour,” and “Intrusion.”
It will centre on the survivors and their methods for reconstructing Earth. These folks have been held captive underground. What effect does that have on people’s minds? Regarding the movie, Waugh discussed it with Screen Rant. “A little boy who was eight years old […] what is his life as a teenager when he’s known nothing else.” It’s similar to how they were able to finance the two halves of Dune. I adore how we’re portraying Greenland since the first film focused entirely on the events leading up to the extinction catastrophe, whereas the second will focus on what transpired afterwards,” he continued.
In the follow-up, Morena Baccarin will return as Allison Garrity, costarring alongside Butler. Because the second film takes place before the first, it is unclear when Roger Dale Floyd, who plays Nathan Garrity, the son of John and Allison, will make a cameo. It is unlikely that many of the original supporting cast members will make a comeback in the sequel, given the scenario of the future movie.
Producers of the movie include Sebastien Raybaud and John Zois of Anton, Butler and Alan Siegel of G-BASE, and Basil Iwanyk and Brendon Boyea of Thunder Road Pictures. The movie’s primary setting, London, has previously been the site of the creation of well-known films like “Wonka,” “The Beekeeper,” and “Rebel Moon: Part One – A Child of Fire.”
