Die Hard 5: A Good Day to Die Hard

Don’t go booking your tickets just yet, but Bruce Willis – out on the press tour for Kevin Smith’s Cop Out – has announced that he thinks Die Hard 5 will happen.

"I think we're going to do a Die Hard 5 next year,” he told MTV, which, given the relative success of Die Hard 4.0 (or Live Free And Die Hard in the US), isn’t too much of a shock.

So far, it’s just the ruminations of one man – but when that man is the living embodiment of John McClane, it’s only fair to listen a little closer.

And just what would Willis’ next step be?

"I would hire Len Wiseman right now," he says, and he’s even got an idea for where the film needs to go to follow that sequel: "Well it's got to go worldwide. That would be my contribution to the next movie.”

Fingers crossed? Mine are, too!

Though things have been fairly quiet on the Die Hard franchise front, the latest development happened in February, with word that Noam Murro had been tapped by 20th Century Fox to bring John McClane back to the big screen.

Now, however, with Murro having won the job of making 300 spin-off Battle of Artemisia, Twitch Film reports that the next Die Hard is a movie in search of a director once more. And according to their sources, The Omen/Max Payne man John Moore has been offered the gig.

Right now, Moore has apparently been told that the chance to make McClane’s life tough all over again is his to take or turn down, but there’s naturally been no official confirmation of that.

But Twitch also mentions that the fifth installment will find the grouchy hero heading to Russia to tangle with local forces alongside his son. Skip Woods was the writer most recently credited with bashing out a draft, but who knows how many cooks have been brought in to work on that broth?

For now, all this is rumor, but there’s a chance we could soon hear more about what John McClane might be up to in future.

Assuming Bruce Willis signs off on it all.

At the start of last month, it was revealed by the team at Twitch that Max Payne director John Moore was at the head of the list to bring John McClane back to our screens for the fifth, currently untitled Die Hard outing.

Well, now things just took a turn for the official as 20th Century Fox has decided that he’s the man for the gig.

You might recall that the search was kicked off again after original choice Noam Murro was poached to make 300 spin-off Battle of Artemisia. While the likes of Joe Cornish, Justin Lin, Paul McGuigan, Gary Fleder and even Drive’s Nicolas Winding Refn were considered (there’s some part of us that would kill to see what Refn would’ve done with McClane’s world), it ultimately came down to the all-important issue of pleasing Bruce Willis.

We’d like to think the selection process involved interested directors having to run an obstacle course while Willis threw old wigs from his movies at them, but sadly it was a much more mundane series of meetings that saw Moore convince Brucie that he could handle the budget and deliver solid, CG-limited action.

And that he loved McClane more than his own family.

Well, maybe loved them equally…

Now the amiable, sweary Irishman will be the man to shoot Skip Woods’ script, which apparently finds McClane and his son dealing with a threat in Russia.

Hey guys, remember "Die Hard?"

It was awesome in the '80s, cool in the '90s and not too bad in the '00s either. Well, don't look now, but it's back to conquer another decade — and it's going to do it with a vengeance.

No, Fox isn't remaking the 1995 threequel "Die Hard with a Vengeance" — but according to SlashFilm, they just tapped "Spartacus: Vengeance" star Jai Courtney to co-star opposite Bruce Willis as John McClane's son in the upcoming fifth "Die Hard" film, "A Good Day to Die Hard."

Yippie-ki-yay?

For those of you who lost track of just what the heck was going on in John McClane's world, we last saw the bald badass in 2007's "Live Free or Die Hard," where he was trying to save his daughter (and, oh yeah, the free world) from a nutjob played by Timothy Olyphant.

That daughter was played by Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who since has gone on to become uber, thanks to films like "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World." So will Courtney's star also rise thanks to his new role as McClane's similarly put-upon (and previously unknown) son, who apparently needs to be rescued from a Russian jail?

It's hard to say just yet, though no doubt Fox is hoping fans will love Courtney enough for him to take over the franchise from the aging Willis.

Either way, one thing is for sure. This franchise really is dying hard.
