00:00If you are just tuning in, we are going to breaking news out of Washington.

00:03The seat here at the White House is getting over the table.

00:05Following the situation as it's developing on the White House ground.

00:09That's my first action move in a long time.

00:12We gotta go, we gotta go, we gotta go!

00:14It's about the White House.

00:16It's the first time I don't totally blow it up.

00:21I just do it bit by bit.

00:30Okay, let's go.

00:34Roland really likes to play with icons.

00:37And if you look at the content of his films, they're fun event movies.

00:40And they take place and unfold over a global scale.

00:44They're big ideas that have to do with real world human issues.

00:47My daughter's downstairs.

00:48Where are you?

00:49Move, move!

00:50She's just a little girl, I gotta go get her.

00:51He really focuses on the story.

00:53At the same time, nobody shoots Mayhem better.

01:00Roland gets up every day and makes this work.

01:04The size and the scope of this project, it's a monster job.

01:08When you're working with Roland, you're gonna need a bigger stage.

01:10Every single element of this film is an inside set piece.

01:14This movie is a huge spectacle.

01:17With a helicopter and tons of people and things on fire.

01:21I mean, it's pretty amazing.

01:22There's a certain scope to his movies and to visually how he approaches it.

01:27But I think what makes it fun to work with him as well is that it's not just about that.

01:32That was good.

01:33And cut.

01:35I think one of the things about Roland that people don't realize is how much of an actor's director he is.

01:39Politicians always love talking about sacrifice.

01:42You think I don't know anything about sacrifice doing this job?

01:44How many people come to your house and want to kill you?

01:47He's a joy to work with.

01:49He's so careful of his actors.

01:51We're crashing the White House.

01:52Get that hallway clear if we have to move. Go!

01:54It's great to have a person who allows you to bring in your voice and bring in your ideas.

01:59Your daughter says that I'm her hero.

02:01And I gotta earn that.

02:02Great, great, great!

02:04As an actor, you love that.

02:05He's always got your back.

02:06He's always going to tell the story.

02:08But also, the guy knows how to shoot.

02:14Roland has a very clear vision.

02:16You have got to get the president to safety.

02:18This film is really frenetic.

02:21And there's a lot of energy to what he's doing.

02:23Go, go, go, go, go!

02:27The camera crew have protection on them because he's bringing the camera right into the action.

02:35He's able to balance this symphony of elements from the floor effects to the performances to the visual effects.

02:42His attention to all of that detail and the way that he's able to bring those elements together, it's pretty amazing.

02:49You can't do this by yourself.

02:53When you see him at the monitors, you can always tell if the director loves what he does.

02:58It's such a big movie.

03:00It's just been a blast.

03:01It's exciting for the audience and I think they will be really surprised.

03:05So, be nice to meet him at the end of the show.

03:06We'll see you soon.

03:07We'll see you there.

03:08We'll see you soon.

03:10See you soon.
