When in October? Bond 24 is released in the UK and other markets in October.

 

[Rowsdower!]

I hope Roland Emmerich and Channing Tatum release 10 Downing Street Down three months later.

I hope we get a scene where the Eurotrash bad guy slowly sings "London Bridge is falling down" while watching it blow up and eating a carrot.

 

[Harry Dresden]

Loved the first one. It was a good surprise.

Hopefully the second one is badass as the first.

 

[Bim]

Loved the first one. It was a good surprise.

Hopefully the second one is badass as the first.

Agreed

 

[dude stannis]

Is it sad this is the 2015 sequel I'm looking forward to most?

 

[CapedCrusader14]

Jesus I didn't think they were actually making a sequel to this.

 

[enterthemadness]

Jesus I didn't think they were actually making a sequel to this.

It's Nu Image/Millennium Films/Millennium Entertainment. They make sequel to anything, direct to dvd action or action in theaters.



I love me some Nu Image....even though script wise their movies are never that good.


I want Scott Adkins in this movie. Bad guy. Eastern European accent. Kick Butler right in the face. Yes.

 

[enterthemadness]

RIP Focus Films. Since they ousted the former CEO, I'm not too sure what they're doing with it.

Huh? I know FilmDistrict was absorbed by Focus



RIP Film District, I'll miss that sexy logo. Classy.

 

[Octoberist]

Yeah, that's very said.

 

[dude stannis]

Jesus I didn't think they were actually making a sequel to this.

They should make 100 of these. At least until we get Mike Banning vs. Vladimir Putin in a jousting tourney while riding bears.

 

[Pink Ranger]

They should make 100 of these. At least until we get Mike Banning vs. Vladimir Putin in a jousting tourney while riding bears.

"Do svidaniya, mother ******!"

 

[Loki882]

Next sequel The Forbidden City Has Fallen.

 

[Eddie Dean]

Mars Has Fallen!

 

[Pink Ranger]

Next sequel The Forbidden City Has Fallen.

"Zia jian, mother ******!"

Mars Has Fallen!

"Zzzzt zzorr zzz, mother ******!"

 

[samsnee]

I don't know how, but they need to find a way to get Channing's character from White House Down in this.

 

[Fallen Angel]

Will they be burning London to the ground like the League of Shadows?

 

[mclay18]

Parts of the movie will shoot in Bulgaria, at Nu Boyana next month. I guess exterior and location shots will take place in the UK, but interior shots won't be.

[chamber-music]

Lots of movies and TV shows shoot stuff in Eastern Europe because its cheaper but usually when a London is being doubled by a Eastern European city it is for a period movie.

 

[StarLord]

Olympus Has Fallen' Sequel Loses Its Director

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/olympus-has-fallen-sequel-loses-734224

 

[Darkness Falls]

I think they should add the words 'Bridge' and 'Down' to the title.

Great tune.

the trailer will have an edgy cover of the tune t:

 

[mclay18]

The replacement director is Babak Najafi. I've never even heard of this guy, but guessing how cheap the producers tend to skew, he must be an affordable pushover.

[MadVillainy]

Liked the first one a lot but I have really REALLY low expectations for this

 

[dude stannis]

This new guy has done Banshee episodes! He's already more qualified than the Charlie Contryman guy.

 

[:eek:]

New Details On "London Has Fallen"

By Garth Franklin Wednesday November 5th 2014 02:02AM
Millennium Films and Focus Features have posted a press release announcing the start of principal photography on "London Has Fallen," the sequel to 2013's action thriller hit "Olympus Has Fallen".
Set to return are Gerard Butler as Secret Service agent Mike Banning, Aaron Eckhart as the President of the United States, Morgan Freeman, as Vice President Trumbull, Angela Bassett as Secret Service Director Lynne Jacobs, Melissa Leo as Defense Secretary Ruth McMillan, Robert Forster as General Edward Clegg, Sean O'Bryan as NSA Deputy Director Ray Monroe, and Radha Mitchell as Leah Banning.
Joining them for this outing are the likes of Jackie Earle Haley ("Watchmen"), Alon Aboutboul ("The Dark Knight Rises"), Charlotte Riley ("In the Heart of the Sea"), and Waleed Zuaiter ("Omar"). Babak Najafi ("Snabba Cash II") directs from a screenplay by Creighton Rothenberger, Katrin Benedikt, Christian Gudegast and Chad St. John.
There's also a new official synopsis out which you can see below:

"The story 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.
However, 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 (Gerard Butler), and an English MI-6 agent who rightly trusts no one."
​

Gerard Butler, Alan Siegel, John Thompson, Les Weldon, and Mark Gill are producing and the film is slated for an October 2nd 2015 release.
