The Story Of Greenland: Migration

The movie takes place after a huge comet strike on the earth. Greenland: Migration will feature these surviving families who went to Greenland (as the title suggests!) The whole premise for Greenland: Migration gives us a whole new angle as this group struggles to build and survive and create a whole new home somewhere else, this time focusing on Europe!

The director Ric Roman Waugh, said that he really wanted to continue with showing just what the humans are capable of!

Focusing on survivors and the complex question of how rebuilding might happen.
The lives that were confined underground! And what impact that had.
There was an element of really exploring and re-imagining just what this has done to Nathan Garrity's development, from childhood through teenage years!

The film is certainly going to deliver what's so meaningful about family! The bond that remains central in "Greenland." And a great continuation from Waugh's direction! The movie also looks to show just what these amazing, strong-willed characters and families can bring! As a follow up film from the iconic Gerard Butler movie that showed just what these actors can do to keep people enthralled with these kinds of special disaster movies.

While there is no solid release date as of this writing, Greenland: Migration looks to be an exciting ride! All those fans are super hyped. It may deliver another epic story from the world of disaster movies, and could be a strong candidate to take the spotlight, considering it's an upcoming movie, for 2025!
