There are two White House set action movies due out this year. First out of the traps is director Antoine Fuqua's (Training Day) Olympus Has Fallen, (Roland Emmerich's White House Down hits in September), starring Gerard Butler as an ex-secret service agent forced to take on terrorists intent on taking over the White House. I find Butler at his best with these action oriented roles, and the below trailer seems to hit a nice balance of dramatic tension and stuff blowing up. The film also stars Morgan Freeman, Angela Basset, Rick Yune, Dylan McDermott, and Aaron Eckhart.
Released: 22nd March (U.S.)/ 19th April (U.K./IRL)
