Stallone’s Cliffhanger to have a sequel

Sylvester Stallone has delighted audiences for generations with his movies like Rocky, Rambo, The Expendables and Cliffhanger.

Now 30 years after Cliffhanger’s release Stallone is reprising the role of Gabe Walker for a sequel, with Stallone’s production company, Balboa Productions, set to co-produce the film.

Released in 1993, in Cliffhanger, Stallone played haunted mountain ranger Gabe Walker who, after heading to rescue the survivors of a plane crash, discovers that the so-called ‘victims’ are, in fact, a group of dangerous crooks looking to recover $100 million. Cliffhanger is widely considered to be one of Stallone’s best movies.
