London Has Fallen is the sequel to Olympus Has Fallen. When the British Prime Minster dies unexpectedly, Secret Service Agent Mike Banning (Butler) knows it is his duty to prepare, with Secret Service Director Lynne Jacobs (Bassett), for them to accompany U.S. President Benjamin Asher (Eckhart) to the state funeral at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London. With every powerful world leader set to attend, the funeral should be the most protected event on Earth. Yet within moments of arriving, heads of government are assassinated and London landmarks are attacked. Asher, Banning, and Jacobs are ambushed and retreat amidst a hail of gunfire and explosives. The devastated British capital goes into lockdown. Banning will stop at nothing to secure Asher’s safe return home. Back at the White House, Vice President Allan Trumbull (Freeman) races against time, brainstorming with top advisors in the Situation Room to get those trapped in London a lifeline of support and a way out. Outnumbered and outgunned, Banning reaches out for help to an English MI6 agent (Riley), who rightly trusts no one. Failure is not an option as they attempt to stop the criminals from carrying out the final phase of their revenge plan. (Gary Reber)
