Netflix Swoops On Liam Neeson Action Pic \u2018The Ice Road\u2019 In Record $18M EFM Domestic Deal: <\/h1>\n

EXCLUSIVE: Netflix has won U.S. rights to Liam Neeson-Laurence Fishburne action-thriller The Ice Road in what is a record domestic-only deal out of the EFM, we can reveal.<\/p>\n

The streamer stumped up $18M for the movie off a promo, we understand, in a deal that was closed over the weekend as the virtual EFM action got underway. There were multiple buyers in the hunt, we hear.<\/p>\n

In The Ice Road, after a remote diamond mine collapses in the far northern regions of Canada, an ice driver (Neeson) leads an impossible rescue mission over a frozen ocean to save the lives of trapped miners despite thawing waters and a threat they never see coming.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s quite the logline. Perfect for Neeson\u2019s \u2018very particular set of skills\u2019.<\/p>\n

Pic is written and directed by Die Hard With A Vengeance and Armageddon scribe Jonathan Hensleigh. CODE Entertainment produced and financed alongside ShivHans Pictures. Envision Media Arts also produced.<\/p>\n

CAA Media finance brokered the deal with Netflix. The Solution handled foreign sales and has sold the movie well around the world, where the irrepressible Neeson remains a solid box office bet.<\/p>\n

Despite frustration from some buyers leading into the EFM, there is a wide variety of projects on sale and this deal marks a lively start to a week of virtual deal-making.<\/p>\n
