Red Band Clip from OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN Starring Gerard Butler
A new red band clip from Antoine Fuqua’s OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN has been been released. The film centers on a disgraced former Presidential guard who finds himself trapped in the White House when it is captured by a terrorist mastermind. As much as I love watching Gerard Butler flirt with Jennifer Aniston and Katherine Heigl in terrible romantic comedies, it’s nice seeing him back in the action genre. I’m a big fan of Fuqua’s “Shooter” and judging by this opening White House takedown scene, it looks we have some entertaining set pieces to look forward to.
Aaron Eckhart, Ashley Judd, Morgan Freeman, Dylan McDermott and Angela Bassett star. Olympus Has Fallen opens on March 22nd.
When the White House (Secret Service Code: “Olympus”) is captured by a terrorist mastermind and the President is kidnapped, disgraced former Presidential guard Mike Banning finds himself trapped within the building. As our national security team scrambles to respond, they are forced to rely on Banning¹s inside knowledge to help retake the White House, save the President and avert an even bigger crisis. Antoine Fuqua (Training Day) directs an all-star cast featuring Gerard Butler, Morgan Freeman, Aaron Eckhart, Angela Bassett, Melissa Leo, Ashley Judd, and Rick Yune.
