Gerard Butler's 98-Minute Sci-Fi Thriller Climbs Prime Video Charts

Though Greenland 2: Migration was not a theatrical hit, it has found a second life on streaming. The 98-minute sci-fi action thriller, starring Gerard Butler alongside Morena Baccarin and Roman Griffin Davis, is currently ranked #7 on Prime Video’s global top 10 list, placing it above titles such as The Housemaid and Shelter.

Released January 9, 2026, the sequel picks up after the 2020 film Greenland, following the Garrity family as they struggle to survive in a post-comet landscape. Living in a bunker after a planet‑destroying comet strikes, John, Allison and their son Nathan are forced back into a hostile wasteland when an earthquake upends their refuge.

The film keeps the first movie’s grounded focus on a family under pressure, with state-of-the-art effects and tense set pieces—the mountaintop scene is singled out as a highlight. Butler stretches beyond his usual action fare in the role, bringing dramatic range to a father who does what’s necessary to protect his family.
