Gerard Butler is back in action as Mike Banning, POTUS-saving Secret Service agent extraordinaire. We've had a teaser trailer for Olympus Has Fallen sequel London Has Fallen already, and now here's the full shebang, with the emphasis on BANG, obviously.
Babak Najafi replaces Antoine Fuqua as the director on this one, which sees Aaron Eckhart's Benjamin Asher and his fellow world leaders assembling for the state funeral of the British Prime Minister. The presence of so many big knobs in one place attracts some Very Bad People to the capital with a Very Nasty Plan. "Only three people have any hope of stopping it,” runs the official synopsis. “The President of the United States, his formidable secret service head, and an English MI-6 agent who rightly trusts no one.” Sounds like Eckhart, who spent the majority of the first film cuffed to a railing, is finally up and running.
Radha Mitchell is back as Leah Banning, with Angela Bassett, Morgan Freeman, Jackie Earle Haley, Melissa Leo, Robert Forster and Colin Salmon all aboard.
London Has Fallen, following some release-date jiggery-pokery, is finally out in the UK on March 4 next year.
