Ric Roman Waugh Latest Celebrity News & Gossip

Gerard Butler is returning to Greenland. The Scottish actor is set to reprise his role as John Garrity in Greenland: Migration, a sequel to action thriller Greenland. The core filmmaking team will return with director Ric Roman Waugh headlining from a script by Greenland writer Chris Sparling. Butler’s co-star Morena Baccarin will also reprise her role as Allison Garrity. 

We finally have an update on Gerard Butler‘s Greenland sequel!

K.J. Yossman Gerard Butler‘s long-awaited “Greenland” sequel is finally set to go into production in April, Variety can confirm. The disaster film, titled “Greenland: Migration,” will see Butler reunite with director Ric Roman Waugh and “Greenland” writer Chris Sparling.

A question comes up part of the way through Ric Roman Waugh’s “Kandahar” that the film can’t find an answer for: Is this a Sad Dad Gerard Butler action picture or a Gritty Dad Gerard Butler action picture? Either way, he’s a dad, but in Sad Dad Butler films, that’s a feature; in Gritty Dad Butler films, it’s window dressing. “Kandahar” isn’t quite one or the other.

Director Ric Roman Waugh’s drab film fumbles and grumbles through Iran, the United Arab Emirates and eventually Afghanistan as the hunt for CIA Agent Tom Harris (Butler) intensifies. “Kandahar,” to its credit, aspires to be deep. Geopolitics come up, as does the Taliban’s mangled interpretation of the Quran, along with ISIS and other aftershocks of American wars in the Middle East.Really, though, it is just another tiresome and impenetrably brooding Gerard Butler movie in which no event seems to matter any more than the next one — and grimaces are mistaken for drama. Before ho-hum Harris goes on the run, he is posing as a utility worker in Iran while attempting to destroy a nuclear plant.

Jazz Tangcay Artisans EditorDirector Ric Roman Waugh’s “Greenland” was originally scheduled to be released in June, but the pandemic changed that — it’s now available on premium VOD. Waugh, who reunites with “Angel has Fallen” actor Gerard Butler, had not yet finished his post-production when the lockdown happened.Although he had locked picture, there was still a lot to be done — from score to visual effects and coloring.

On a molecular level, Ric Roman Waugh’s “Greenland” is a global disaster picture like any other disaster picture: there is a disaster (natch) that strikes across the world (of course) and the picture’s focus lands on the shoulders of one ordinary guy with family problems who hauls maximum ass to not only rescue his family from said disaster but also reconcile said problems.

Gerard Butler, Morena Baccarin and director Ric Roman Waugh discuss their latest disaster movie Greenland. In the video below, Gerard Butler asks the age old “What would you do if a comet strikes the earth” question.

First, the White House was in trouble in “Olympus Has Fallen.” Next, it was all of London in “London Has Fallen.” Then, it was God and angels and the Devil in “Angel Has Fallen” (Note: I didn’t see the movie, so I could very well be wrong about that description).
