The FOX / Tubi Original movie PRESIDENT DOWN debuts August 29th on Tubi. Directed by genre veteran Nick Lyon, and starring Gayle O’Grady and G. Anthony Joseph (Ballerina Assassin).
Los Angeles, CA — Tubi and The Asylum are proud to announce the world premiere of their latest high-stakes thriller, PRESIDENT DOWN, an adrenaline-fueled action film directed by Nick Lyon. Releasing exclusively as a Tubi Original on August 29, the film delivers explosive set pieces, shocking twists, and a suspense-driven story ripped straight from today’s headlines.
When the President of the United States collapses during a historic peace accord, chaos erupts. A sinister conspiracy is revealed—terrorists have hacked her pacemaker, threatening not only her life but also global stability. With every heartbeat on the line, a team of fearless agents must unravel the plot, hunt down its perpetrators, and stop a nuclear nightmare before time runs out.
The ensemble cast features Gayle O’Grady as the President of the United States, Gina Vitori as her daughter, and standout performances from Jesse Kove, David Chokachi, Paul Logan, Johnny Pacar, and G. Anthony Joseph as the villain Dr. Walsh. Together, they bring grit, humanity, and intensity to a thriller that never lets go.
Director Nick Lyon, known for his sharp eye for tension and action, drives the story with a relentless pace that combines political intrigue with cinematic spectacle—from car chases through Washington, D.C. to tactical showdowns in the swamps of Louisiana and a deadly game of cat-and-mouse in Las Vegas.
Actor G. Anthony Joseph praised the project, saying:
“It was a blast being cast as the villain Dr Walsh and being directed by director Nick Lyon. He was such a pleasure to work with. He was very decisive and very firm in his craft yet he gave me room to create as an artist. That freedom made me feel totally relaxed on set despite the schedule we all had to keep. Nick was definitely a master at finding that balance.”
“PRESIDENT DOWN is a heart-stopping thriller about courage under impossible circumstances,” says producers David Michael Latt, David Rimawi, and The Asylum. “It’s about family, loyalty, and the sacrifices made when the fate of the world rests in your hands.”
Packed with adrenaline-charged sequences, strong performances, and nonstop suspense, PRESIDENT DOWN promises to keep viewers glued to their screens until the final shocking moment.
