The co-stars hugged and laughed on the red carpet, and posed with the film's director, Antoine Fuqua, at the event, held at the Tribeca Grand Hotel.
In "Olympus," the President of the Unites States (Aaron Eckhart) is kidnapped, and the White House is overrun by terrorists. The president's and the nation's safety lies in the hands of a disgraced presidential guard (Butler).
The film also stars Morgan Freeman. (Moviefone premiered an exclusive clip of Freeman from the movie on Tuesday).
