	'''''The Siege''''' is a 1998 thriller directed by [[Edward Zwick]] and stars [[Denzel Washington]] as FBI Assistant Special Agent-in-Charge Anthony 'Hub' Hubbard, who along with his fellow agents are charged with stopping a continuing series of terrorist attacks that have crippled the city of New York. The film is notable for its depiction of the American reaction to such a terrorist attack on US soil. Though the film was poorly received at the time of its release, it was later regarded as prescient following the tragic events of September 11, 2001. The cast included [[Annette Bening]], [[Tony Shalhoub]], and [[Bruce Willis]], and the film was co-written by Lawrence Wright, who is now better-known as the author of the book ''The Looming Tower''.
