'Olympus Has Fallen' Gets New Featurette & Fiery Character Posters

Posted byBy Jarel McRae | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Olympus Has Fallen has a new featurette and  six new character posters that was just been released.  A stern Morgan Freeman is featured in one of the posters, which also depict the images of Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, Angela Bassett and Rick Yune.

The action thriller follows Mike Banning (Butler), a “disgraced” former presidential guard who finds himself caught up in a major crisis when a terrorist mastermind takes over the White House and holds the president hostage. Trapped inside, Banning has to use the skills learned from his former job to help national security retake the White House and save the president. You can check out the new featurette below. It gives a behind the scenes look at the film and its amazing cast.

Olympus Has Fallen  is directed by Antoine Fuqua who worked from a script penned by Creighton Rothenberger and Katrin Benedikt. Melissa Leo and Ashley Judd also star in the movie, but for some outrageous reason they weren’t deemed banner-worthy.

The film is scheduled to take over theaters in the United States on March 22, 2013.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
