The White House and the President of the United States are under attack and it appears one man will be charged with saving our nation. No, this isn’t Olympus Has Fallen. Instead we’re talking about the second film of 2013 to feature an attack on the United States’ most famous residence – White House Down. Rather than Gerard Butler as the hero, White House Down gives us Channing Tatum. And instead of Aaron Eckhart as the President, this upcoming Columbia Pictures release has Jamie Foxx as the U.S. President.
The trailer’s heavy on the action and light on the actual story, however Columbia Pictures has released this synopsis:
Capitol Policeman John Cale (Tatum) has just been denied his dream job with the Secret Service of protecting President James Sawyer (Foxx). Not wanting to let down his little girl with the news, he takes her on a tour of the White House, when the complex is overtaken by a heavily armed paramilitary group. Now, with the nation’s government falling into chaos and time running out, it’s up to Cale to save the president, his daughter, and the country.
White House Down comes to theaters on June 28, 2013.
