🌍🔥 Greenland 2: Migration (2026) — Gerard Butler Returns in a Brutal New Survival Journey

The world didn’t end after the comet strike — but everything that followed might be even worse. Greenland 2: Migration, the long-awaited sequel to the 2020 hit disaster thriller, arrives in theaters on January 9, 2026, and Lionsgate has dropped a gripping new official clip titled “Right On Top of You.” The tension is suffocating, the stakes are higher than ever, and Gerard Butler is once again fighting tooth and nail to keep his family alive.

If Greenland was about surviving the end of the world, Migration is about surviving what’s left of it.

🌑 The Aftermath of the End: A World Turned to Ruins

Five years after the devastating Clarke comet wiped out most of humanity, the Earth is a wasteland of collapsed nations, broken infrastructure, volatile survivors, and dwindling resources. The Garrity family — John, Allison, and their son Nathan — have lived under the fragile safety of the subterranean Greenland bunker. But now, survival demands something even more terrifying than the comet itself: stepping back into the broken world above.

The sequel raises the stakes immediately. Food is scarce. Systems have collapsed. Violence rules the open road. And the Garritys must attempt the impossible — crossing a shattered Europe in search of a new home.

Director Ric Roman Waugh once again leans into raw realism, capturing a world that didn’t just fall… it shattered.

🚨 Exclusive Clip: “Right On Top of You” — A World Where Danger Never Sleeps

The newly released clip throws viewers straight into the film’s relentless tension. In true Greenland fashion, it’s not monsters or superpowers that haunt the screen — it’s humanity. Extreme weather, collapsed cities, desperate survivors, dwindling supplies, and the weight of fear pressing down on every decision.

Gerard Butler’s John Garrity isn’t a superhero. He’s a father terrified of losing the last thing he loves. Morena Baccarin’s Allison brings emotional gravitas and unshakable strength. And Roman Griffin Davis — replacing Roger Dale Floyd — delivers a deeply human performance as Nathan, whose diabetes adds life-or-death urgency to every moment of their journey.

This family isn’t just outrunning danger.They’re outrunning time.

🌪️ A Perilous Migration Across Europe’s Wasteland

Unlike the first film, set largely in the U.S. and the Greenland bunker, the sequel unfolds across a ravaged European landscape. Once-thriving countries have become haunting backdrops for survival — with remnants of civilization scattered through the ashes.

Expect:

• collapsed cities

• abandoned highways overtaken by nature

• unexploded military zones

• violent survivor factions

• extreme climate shifts

• humanity pushed to its limits

The Garrity family fights through Europe not knowing what — or who — they’ll encounter next. Each step forward risks everything they have left.

⭐ A Stronger, Darker, More Emotional Sequel

Greenland 2: Migration isn’t trying to repeat the first film — it’s expanding it. With a budget of $90 million, the scope is bigger, the world is harsher, and the emotional core runs even deeper.

Director Ric Roman Waugh and writer Chris Sparling dig into themes of:

• survival vs. morality

• rebuilding after devastation

• the fragility of human systems

• the unbreakable instinct to protect family

• the cost of hope in a world without guarantees

This is a disaster thriller with a pulse — one that hits close to reality.
