Gerard Butler’s ‘Has Fallen’ Film Franchise Gets an Event TV Series Makeover in Studiocanal’s ‘Paris Has Fallen’
John Hopewell Chief International Correspondent Is this now an age of TV caution? A brace of big swings at this week’s London TV Screenings belie that trend, and few come bigger than the English-language action thriller “Paris Has Fallen,” which Studiocanal launches at this week’s London TV Screenings.
