To the White House

The president’s residence is in danger in White House Down, and Maggie Gyllenhaal – Maggie Gyllenhaal! – is going to help make sure it lives to die another day.

Yes, indeed, the actress is circling the female lead in the new thriller that disaster-movie auteur Roland Emmerich is directing.

Channing Tatum is already on board as the Secret Service agent who tries to thwart a takeover by a hostile paramilitary group, while Jamie Foxx will follow-up his upcoming violent romp Django Unchained by playing the POTUS.

Kick ass, Mags!
