London Has Falllen Full Movie History-2006:
The sequel to the worldwide smash hit Olympus Has Fallen begins in London, where the British Prime Minister has passed away under mysterious circumstances. His funeral is a must-attend event for leaders of the western world. But what starts out as the most protected event on earth, turns into a deadly plot to kill the world's most powerful leaders, devastate every known landmark in the British capital, and unleash a terrifying vision of the future. Only three people have any hope of stopping it: the President of the United States, his formidable secret service head , and an English MI-6 agent who rightly trusts no one.On May 20, 2015, Focus Features relaunched their Gramercy Pictures label for action, horror, and science-fiction releases. London Has Fallen will be one of Gramercy's new releases. It was originally planned for an October 2, 2015 release. However, on June 12, 2015, it was announced that the film has been moved back to January 22, 2016 to avoid competition with director Ridley Scott's The Martian, which swapped its original November 25 release date with director Paul McGuigan's Victor Frankenstein two days pri On July 1, 2015, the film's teaser trailer was released. The timing of the release was criticized as "insensitive" by the Chair of the Tavistock Square Memorial Trust, Philip Nelson, as it coincided with the week of the 10th anniversary of the 7 July 2005 London bombings in which 52 people were killed, as well as the 2015 Sousse attacks in which 30 British nationals were killed. On September 16, 2015, the film's release was moved back again to March 4, 2016, because the studios needed more time to finish the film's visual effects. The official US trailer was released on November 5, 2015. A new theatrical poster of the film was released on January 21, 2016. The film has received an R rating from the MPAA.
The principal photography on the film began on October 24, 2014, in London. Four weeks of shooting were to take place, involving actors Freeman, Eckhart, Bassett and Melissa Leo, before a break for Christmas. Gerard Butler - who had been filming Geostorm the previous October - joined the shoot later, filming scenes with Eckhart in March 2015. A helicopter was seen making an expert landing in the courtyard of Somerset House, which is normally used to host London Fashion Week and summer film screenings.[19] Butler and Angela Bassett were seen filming in Somerset House. Butler stated in an interview that the movie was also filmed in India and is set to continue in Bulgaria. The President of Bulgaria Rosen Plevneliev visited the set of London Has Fallen during filming at Boyana Cinema Center in Bulgaria. Filming would last through April 2015.
Butler, Freeman, Eckhart, Bassett, and Mitchell will reprise their roles from Olympus Has Fallen. Production was scheduled to begin in May 2014 in London, with Creighton Rothenberger and Katrin Benedikt returning to pen the script. Director Antoine Fuqua, however, was not returning due to his commitments with The Equalizer. On May 1, 2014, it was announced Focus Features had acquired distribution rights to the sequel and will release it on October 2, 2015. On August 18, 2014, it was announced that Charlie Countryman director Fredrik Bond would be taking over direction from Fuqua, but Bond left the film on September 18, just six weeks before the shooting was set to begin. On September 28, director Babak Najafi signed on to direct the film. On October 10, Jackie Earle Haley joined the film to play Deputy Chief Mason. On November 12, Mehdi Dehbi joined the film to play Sultan Mansoor, the youngest of three brothers whose life has been forever changed after a drone strike.
