Hollywood’s favourite Scotsman has killed at the box office this week. Gerard Butler is back with another chart topping movie, the third in the Fallen franchise, Angel has Fallen.
The action-packed film also stars Morgan Freeman as the US President and the plot roughly follows Butler, playing a Secret Service agent Mike Banning, being wrongly accused of trying to assasinate the President.
In the first movie in 2013, Olympus Has Fallen, saw a North Korean group take control of the White House and in the process destroy half of Washington, D.C., and of course included a nuclear bomb threat as well.
In the second movie released in 2016, London Has Fallen, a Pakistani arms dealer destroys London and kills a number of world leaders.
