London Has Fallen

Western intelligence agencies identify Aamir Barkawi as the mastermind behind a series of global terror attacks. This marks the beginning of a manhunt to neutralize his threat.

The United States launches a drone strike on Barkawi's compound, believing it to be a successful operation that eliminates him and his family. However, the aftermath reveals that Barkawi has survived, setting the stage for his revenge.

Mike Banning, a dedicated Secret Service agent, awaits the birth of his first child with his wife, Leah. Their personal joy contrasts sharply with the looming threat posed by Barkawi's survival.

The assassination of British Prime Minister James Wilson is announced, sending shockwaves through the political landscape. Following this tragic development, President Asher, Banning, and Secret Service Director Jacobs travel to London for Wilson's funeral.

During the gathering of world leaders at Wilson's funeral, mercenaries orchestrated by Barkawi launch a devastating assault. The attack begins with a catastrophic explosion, killing the Canadian Prime Minister and creating chaos among the dignitaries.

As the assault continues, world leaders are targeted, with notable incidents including the drowning of the Japanese Prime Minister due to an engineered bridge collapse. The French President also falls victim to a bomb blast, resulting in extensive destruction.

Asher, Banning, and the Secret Service engage in a firefight outside St. Paul's Cathedral, desperately trying to fend off the attackers. The chaos results in heavy casualties on both sides, underscoring the gravity of the situation.

The terrorists disrupt power supplies across London, plunging the city into darkness during the attack. This adds to the confusion and danger for Asher and Banning as they attempt to escape.

In a desperate escape attempt, terrorists shoot down Marine One, leaving Jacobs fatally injured. Her dying wish implores Banning to seek vengeance for those who have been killed in the assault.

Banning and Asher find temporary refuge in the deactivated London Underground system, realizing that their survival hinges on evading capture by Barkawi's operatives. Asher instructs Banning on the grave situation they face.

In the midst of crisis, Banning successfully contacts Vice President Trumbull to relay their dire situation and the location of a potential safe-house. Back at the White House, Barkawi reveals his horrific plan to poison Wilson.

Banning realizes that the rescuers sent to aid them are actually terrorists infiltrating British intelligence. This shocking revelation heightens the tension as he prepares to confront the imminent threat.

In a chaotic turn of events, Asher is captured by the terrorists and taken to a construction site. Kamran, Barkawi's son, prepares to execute him live, presenting a ticking clock for Banning.

Banning teams up with elite commandos from SAS and Delta Force for a daring rescue operation. In a fierce battle, they confront Kamran and his men, leading to a dramatic climax with the destruction of the building to ensure their safety.

Following the downfall of Barkawi's operations in Yemen, Banning returns home to enjoy moments with Leah and their newborn, whom they name Lynne in honor of Jacobs. Deeply moved by Trumbull's speech on resilience, Banning chooses to stay and recommit to his duties.
