Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart and Morgan Freeman have signed on for a sequel to surprise box office hit Olympus Has Fallen.

The thriller about a terrorist attack on the White House was a big hit at the global box office earlier this year, and the film's three stars are reteaming for a follow-up, set overseas.

However, director Antoine Fuqua won't be back for London Has Fallen.

It wasn't the only White House attack film this year - Roland Emmerich's White House Down also centred around a terrorist attack on the famous building.

Olympus Has Fallen grossed less worldwide than White House Down (US$161 million vs US$205 million), but Fuqua's R-Rated film outgrossed Emmerich's blockbuster in North America (US$99 million vs US$73 million).
