TO Sylvester Stallone We will see him again in just a few days in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy 3’ and ‘The Expendables 4’ is also pending release, but it seems that he never tires of repeating characters. In fact, now it has been known that the mythical actor will star in a sequel to ‘Maximum Risk’, one of the best films in his filmography, 30 years after the premiere of the first installment.
More details about ‘Maximum Risk 2’
At the moment it is unknown what the story of this sequel will be, but I know a curious particularity. On the one hand, a sequel to ‘Maximum Risk’ should plunge us back into the world of mountaineering, but on the other Stallone is already 76 years old and on top of that, one of the bases of the first installment is that his character had decided to retire.
The truth is that it is surprising that a sequel has taken so long to move forward, since ‘Maximum Risk’ became Stallone’s third highest-grossing film at the time and today it still holds sixth place. There is no doubt that if it had been released several years later, we would have already seen ‘Maximum Risk 2’ long time.
Who will not repeat will be Renny Harlin behind the cameras, since the staging will be carried out by Ric Roman Waugh, head of the estimable ‘Greenland: The Last Refuge’. For its part, the script has been written by Mark Bianculli (‘Hunters’).
Of course, let’s hope that this time there will be no problems for the project to go ahead, since in 2009 there was talk of a prequel, while in 2019 a remake with a female protagonist was launched that he was going to direct Ana Lily Amirpour (‘A girl comes home alone at night’), but neither was ever heard from again.
