    Gerard Butler’s New Film “Plane” [Has Fallen] Gets Trailer

    Oh Gerard Butler, you Scottish madman you. From being the king of Sparta in “300,” to the masked man in Joel Schumacher’s 2005 “The Phantom of the Opera,” is there nothing this near god among men can’t do? This is the Scotsman who played Count Dracula in “Dracula 2000,” and helped save the President in “Olympus Has Fallen,” “London Has Fallen,” and “Angel Has Fallen.” Or at least in two of them he did- maybe in the third he saved an actual angel, or Morgan Freeman or something.

    Anyway, nothing will stop this man from being whoever he wants, in whatever film he wants, and not giving a damn about what nationality he sounds like, as long as it can still be mostly Scottish. That’s why we can’t help but be pumped for his latest upcoming film “Plane” [Has Fallen]. Obviously that’s not the real title- “Plane” is,- but we’re gonna keep calling it that. Because reasons.

    Plane – Lionsgate

    In “Plane,” Butler plays a commercial airline pilot who is either Scottish, or a Scottish person pretending to be American, and failing badly. Before take off, Captain Gerard Butler (yes he has an actual character name, but I don’t care what it is) is informed that he’ll be taking on a fugitive for the purposes of extradition. I did look this up while writing this and can confirm that yes, fugitives can be extradited from one country to another on a commercial airline, with certain procedures in place.

    The flight happens, a storm happens, and the planes goes smoothly through it, and nothing goes wrong. Of course that’s not what happens! Are you kidding? That plane is lucky it even made it airborne enough to fly into the storm considering it had to carry the weight that is the acting prowess of Captain Gerard Butler up here. The man was in “Geostorm!! Instead, the plane crashes, or in the world of Gerard Butler films- “has fallen.” Hence why this film should have clearly been called, “Plane Has Fallen.” Instead it’s just called “Plane” but for the purposes of this article, it will henceforth be called, “Plane” [Has Fallen].

    Here’s where the story takes a twist that, because “Plane” [Has Fallen] on an island. Yup, Captain Gerard Butler pulled a Sully over here. Instead of landing on the Hudson though, Captain Leonidas Beowulf managed to land it on a terrorist filled island. You know, one of those islands that’s just filled to the brim with separatists fighting against the government of some country that we’re going to paint with VERY broad strokes in the same way Gary Oldman was broadly Russian in “Air Force One.” So of course, it’s up to Gerard Butler to save them all… but he’ll need some help.

    Mike Colter in Plane – Lionsgate –

    That brings us back to the prisoner stashed away on the plane played by “Marvel’s Luke Cage” himself, Mike Colter. And you are NOT prepared for the firestorm of R-rated manliness that is going to rain down about this island of terrorists now that Cage and Leonidas are together! Colter’s character is a man convicted of homicide while Captain Gerard Butler is just looking to kill more people than Rambo on a cocktail of cocaine and absinthe. You can see it in his eyes, this captain will stop at NOTHING to save the passengers on his plane! He doesn’t know ANY of their names, but these people are the most important things in his life damn it! That’s what a good captain does! He doesn’t just land the plane, he guns down every mother****er on the island it crashes on!

    “Plane” [Has Fallen] has all the markings of a mid 90s Mel Gibson action flick, except this one has an actual Scottish accent, carries a gun instead of a claymore, and rides an airplane instead of a horse. It’s the kind of cinematic experience where the only nuance is whether or not they used CGI blood or actual blood packets. It’s a movie where if you go to see it in theaters, they don’t offer you soda and popcorn, but a pint of Tennent’s and a bucket full of haggis.

    “Plane” [Has Fallen] doesn’t have a set release date, despite some sites saying January of 2023. This movie doesn’t play by “the rules” that’s not what Captain Gerard Butler does; he lands his plane where he wants to and when he wants to, just like his movies. “Plane” will hit theaters whenever it damn well pleases!
