Directed by Antoine Fuqua, it stars Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, and Morgan Freeman, with Angela Bassett, Robert Forster, Cole Hauser, Ashley Judd, Melissa Leo, Dylan McDermott, Radha Mitchell, and Rick Yune in supporting roles. The film depicts a North Korean-led guerrilla assault on the White House, and focuses on disgraced Secret Service agent Mike Banning&#8217;s (Butler) efforts to rescue the President (Eckhart). The film was released on March 22, 2013, by FilmDistrict and received mixed critical reception but earned more than $160 million against a $70 million production budget. Olympus Has Fallen was one of two films released in 2013 that dealt with a terrorist attack on the White House, the other being White House Down. A sequel titled London Has Fallen was released on March 4, 2016, with the principal cast members reprising their roles.<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-body entry-content\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-body entry-content\">This is an upcoming figure that will be released by <strong>DID: MA80119S 1\/6th scale US Secret Service Special Agent Special Edition &#8220;Mark&#8221; 12-inch action figure<\/strong>.
