A "Cliffhanger" reboot is climbing into theaters.

A reboot of the 1993 action thriller is in the works, with a female-led cast and a female director in Ana Lily Amirpour ("A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night"). "Aquaman" star Jason Momoa is talks for a key cameo.

The original movie starred Sylvester Stallone as a mountain climber and rescue ranger haunted by the death of a friend. He finds himself fighting criminals in a heist-gone-wrong in the Rocky Mountains.

Rocket Science announced it acquired the rights to the film and is partnering with producer Neil Moritz's Original Film ("Fast and the Furious") to make the reboot. They are launching international sales at the Cannes Film Festival.

"We are setting out to create a thrill-ride on the mountain which taps into the primal side of an action movie, where you see what a person is capable of doing to survive in the most extreme situations, pushed to the limits,"Amirpour said in a statement.

"Add to that some high-stakes espionage and a badass female mountain climber as the lead and it becomes a truly epic reinvention of what made the original 'Cliffhanger' movie so fun and so thrilling.”
