Olympus Has Fallen is a 2013 action film that stars Gerard Butler as Mike Banning, a disgraced Secret Service agent who must rescue the President of the United States (Aaron Eckhart) from North Korean terrorists who have seized the White House. Directed by Antoine Fuqua (Training Day, Shooter) the film is scheduled to be released in the US on March 22, 2013, ahead of the similarly-themed thriller White House Down.
The following weapons were used in the film Olympus Has Fallen:
Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) and other Secret Service agents use current-production SIG-Sauer P229 pistols as their sidearms. Kang Yeonsak (Rick Yune), leader of the North Korean terrorists, is also seen wielding a P229.
Some of the North Koreans who invade the White House are armed with Glock 17 pistols. Metropolitan Police Department officers use Glocks while battling the terrorists. Banning is also seen holding a Glock while inside the White House.
The North Korean terrorists appear to be largely armed with Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns with Navy trigger groups, Surefire dedicated forend weaponlights, and ACOG scopes. Banning also uses an MP5A3, presumably after disarming some of the terrorists.
An AC-130 "Spectre" gunship that is used to bombard the White House before the terrorist attack fires what appear to be M134 Miniguns. An anti-aircraft system mounted on the White House roof is also equipped with M134s.
