On Tuesday, Jan. 22, iTunes Movie Trailers unveiled the trailer which tells the story of how the President of the United States is kidnapped inside the White House. The film takes its title from the Secret Service code name for the White House, which is Olympus. Check out the official trailer here.
Olympus Has Fallen explores how a terrorist organization is able to infiltrate the White House and take the president (Aaron Eckhart) hostage.
