I’m a fan of theHas Fallenmovie franchiseand was naturally intrigued whenParis Has Fallenwas announced.
It also reminds me of shows likeStrike Backor24with its combination of action, procedural, and character drama.
Shows with that mixture are becoming rarer, andParis Has Fallengets the balancejustright.
It has the same blend of feeling groundedandbeing utterly ludicrous at the same time.
If there was another area I found it lacking, it was creating great villains.
That’s one wayParis Has Fallenbests it, with Pearce (Sean Harris) being a fantastic bad guy.
Paris Has Fallen follows a protection officer and an MI6 operative as they join forces in the aftermath of a terrorist attack. Suspecting a mole, they race against time to uncover a larger conspiracy that threatens the safety of Paris.
All of his men were also killed, and the series follows his carefully laid plans to get revenge.
Assuming a second season happens, I think the show will struggle to find another villain half as interesting.
It was confirmed in 2024 that a24movie was being developed, though plot details are being kept under wraps.
Times have changed since24was in its prime, and admittedly, the last few seasons weren’t its strongest.

A spin-off of the original drama-thriller series on Fox, 24: Legacy follows a new protagonist, a former Army Sergeant named Eric Carter, who has returned from duty only to discover that a terrorist organization is hunting down him and his team. Having taken a flash drive with sensitive criminal information from them, the cell will stop at nothing to get them back. To survive and stop a colossal incoming threat, Carter reaches out to the CTU, the agency Jack Bauer worked for, to help him complete his new mission.
