Shocking visuals depicting the surprise attack, battle, and occupation
'Olympus Has Fallen,' which depicts a surprise attack, fierce battles, and a rescue mission with realistic intensity within the seemingly most secure building in the world, is set to be released.
The film is directed by Antoine Fuqua, known for his work on 'Training Day.' He tackles the unprecedented theme of the 'fall of the White House' with dynamic realism. The opening 15 minutes, depicting the surprise attack, the ensuing battle, and the occupation, are particularly overwhelming.
The lead role is played by Gerard Butler, star of '300' and 'The Phantom of the Opera,' alongside a powerful cast including veteran actors Morgan Freeman and Aaron Eckhart.
What is the terrorists' true objective?──
The day after Independence Day. The White House, once an impenetrable fortress, falls in just 13 minutes to a simultaneous air and ground assault, becoming an 'unconquerable fortress' for the invaders within 15 minutes. The demands of the Asian terrorists who carried out this unprecedented act of terror are twofold: 'The withdrawal of the U.S. Seventh Fleet from the Sea of Japan' and 'The withdrawal of all 28,500 U.S. troops from the Military Demarcation Line between North and South Korea.'
With the President held hostage and special forces assaults failing, the Pentagon's highest command faces a desperate predicament. Just as all hope seems lost, one man succeeds in infiltrating the building. It is Mike Banning, a former presidential Secret Service agent who left the field after failing to protect the First Lady.
Can he be trusted? As the Pentagon hesitates, Banning heads deeper into the colossal fortress alone, with the clock ticking and the words 'I will definitely rescue them' echoing. However, the terrorists had a hidden agenda.──.
