Gerard Butler is back in an upcoming action-thriller film “Plane” from French director Jean-François Richet.

In the film, Butler plays a pilot who is faced with protecting his passengers in the aftermath of a crash landing on an island. “No need to worry, folks, these planes are pretty much indestructible,” Butler says as a plane race through its path in the air.

The movie is based on Charles Cumming’s book and also stars, Mike Colter, Yoson An, Daniella Pineda, Paul Ben-Victor, Remi Adeleke, Joey Slotnick, Evan Dane Taylor, Claro de los Reyes, and Tony Goldwyn.

The film is set to be released by Lionsgate on January 13, 2023.

Here’s the film’s synopsis:
In the white-knuckle action movie PLANE, pilot Brodie Torrance (Gerard Butler) saves his passengers from a lightning strike by making a risky landing on a war-torn island – only to find that surviving the landing was just the beginning. When most of the passengers are taken hostage by dangerous rebels, the only person Torrance can count on for help is Louis Gaspare (Mike Colter), an accused murderer who was being transported by the FBI. In order to rescue the passengers, Torrance will need Gaspare’s help, and will learn there’s more to Gaspare than meets the eye.

Bruce Willis is set to reprise his role as the title character for “”Detective Knight: Independence”, and Lionsgate has released the film’s trailer, giving audiences a look at the upcoming third and final chapter of the action film.

“Detective Knight: Independence” is directed by Edward Drake, who’s also responsible for writing the screenplay and the story with Corey Large.

Also in the film are Jack Kilmer, Lochlyn Munro, Jimmy Jean-Louis, Willow Shields, Dina Meyer, and Timothy V. Murphy.

Lionsgate is set to premiere the film in select theaters, on demand and digital and later in a month, on January 20.

Here’s the film’s official synopsis:

Knight’s last-minute assignment to the Independence Day shift turns into a race to stop an unbalanced ambulance EMT from imperiling the city’s festivities. The misquided vigilante, playing cop with a stolen gun and uniform, has a bank vault full of reasons to put on his own fireworks show… one that will strike dangerously close to Knight’s.
