Angel Has Fallen
Director: Ric Roman Waugh (“Snitch,” “Felon”)
Cast: Gerard Butler, Morgan Freeman
Details: The third and (hopefully) final film in the franchise that began with “Olympus Has Fallen” and “London Has Fallen,” Gerard Butler once again returns as Secret Service agent Mike Banning and this time he is the target. Those after him also hope to take down Air Force One and half of Washington, D.C. in the process. Made for economical budgets, both previous films have been box-office successes with $160 & $200 million respectively along with a sizable fanbase (aside from critics who loathe the films).
One thing that may get the critics onside this time out is the hiring of Ric Roman Waugh as director following much acclaim for his recent film “Shot Caller”. Morgan Freeman also returns but no other cast members like Melissa Leo, Robert Forester or Radha Mitchell have yet been revealed and Aaron Eckhart is already confirmed to not be coming back as the U.S. President.
