'Angel Has Fallen' Official Trailer

Lionsgate has released the official trailer for Angel Has Fallen, the third film in the Fallen franchise that sees Gerard Butler trying to stop assassination attempts. Only this time there’s a twist.

In 2013’s Olympus Has Fallen he saved the president. In 2016’s London Has Fallen he saved the world leaders. In 2019 he has to save himself.

I’ve never seen a single one of these films, but a good friend of mine enjoys them. After watching the trailer, I might have to give the first two a shot. It doesn’t look like it will win any awards, but turning off my brain for a couple hours and just watching the explosions and action fly across the screen doesn’t sound like a bad way to spend a Saturday.

Plot Synopsis:

When there is an assassination attempt on U.S. President Allan Trumbull (Morgan Freeman), his trusted confidant, Secret Service Agent Mike Banning (Gerard Butler), is wrongfully accused and taken into custody. After escaping from capture, he becomes a man on the run and must evade his own agency and outsmart the FBI in order to find the real threat to the President. Desperate to uncover the truth, Banning turns to unlikely allies to help clear his name, keep his family from harm and save the country from imminent danger.

Nick Holte, Danny Huston, Michael Landes, Tim Blake Nelson, Piper Perabo, Jada Pinkett Smith, and Lance Reddick also star.
