All though its old news I would like to share my joy about the new upcoming Die Hard movie .. Die hard 4.0.

Its been about 9-10 years ago, that Die Hard 3 came out. And I must admit that I'v allways hoped that Willis would bring John McClane back to life and smash and rumble through another exciting Die Hard movie on the big screen.
I can't wait to see, first of a trailer, which I'm sure won't be released untill another 12 months or maby a little more, since filming won't start untill summer of 2005. Second of all, I can't wait to sit in the theater and watch the action explode into crazyness on the big screen. :cool: :cool:

Richardson takes over Die Hard 4:

There’s some movement on the long-awaited “Die Hard 4”, a studio insider tells Moviehole today.

The previously rumoured-to-be-titled “Die Hard 4: Die Hardest” is now going by the avant-garde title “DH 4.0”.

Screenwriter Marc Bomback, of “Godsend” fame, is off the project and Doug Richardson, the scribe for Willis' latest “Hostage” is on, with a script apparently to be done and dusted within the next 4 months.

Bruce Willis is clearing his schedule for a Spring/Summer 05 shoot. “Die Hard” co-star Reginald Vel Johnson will also appear, back in the guise of cop Al Powell – he too, is currently in talks.

No word on a plot, location or further co-stars as yet.

Word from LA sources give reports of a possible merging of screenplays penned by Ben Trebilcook [“Daisy Scarlett”] and Bomback, with Richardson – who also penned “Die Hard 2: Die Harder” with Steven E. De Souza, as well as the original “Bad Boys” and “Money Train” - sorting them both out.

The fourth “Die Hard” film has been in the works for a couple of years now. Bruce Willis wasn’t so keen at it at one point but seems to have accepted the fact that he’s in dire need of a hit and this might be his best bet. The strongest plot rumour suggests that the film will centre about Cop John McClane (Willis) and his daughter, though that might change with Richardson’s script.


Yippee-ki-yay!

20th Century Fox has hired Doug Richardson to rewrite Die Hard 4, which is being developed under the supervision of star Bruce Willis and his Cheyenne Enterprises partner Arnold Rifkin, reports Variety.

Richardson also wrote Hostage, the Florent Siri-directed, Stratus-financed adaptation of the Robert Crais novel that stars Willis and will be distributed by Miramax.

The trade says Richardson will be rewriting a script by Mark Bomback, who redrafted a pre-existing Fox script called "World War 3.com." Richardson will be working from the same storyline to bring John McClane back to the big screen.

John McTiernan directed the original and third installment, but it is unclear whether he will return for a third film.

I really like the Die Hard trilogy so hopefully they bring back a lot of the people that made this movie worth while and not create an insult to the trilogy.

Die Hard 4.0 Update!

Bruce Willis Says Die Hard 4.0 Still on.
Source: Freeze Dried Movies January 15, 2005 http://www4.freezedriedmovies.com/news/index.php?Action=Full&NewsID=2058


Maxim magazine (via Freeze Dried Movies) asked Bruce Willis, who stars in the upcoming Hostage and Sin City, about whether or not a fourth "Die Hard" movie was still a go.

"It's Die Hard 4.0. They're working on the script right now," says Willis. "Doug Richardson, who wrote 'Hostage' is typing away furiously. It's a really interesting idea. And it's the first one that Fox has liked, so we'll see."

While he wouldn't reveal much about the plot, he did add, "John McClane is retired. I can tell you that."


I can't wait for this one,they have all been sucessfull & I have them all on dvd. I'm glad that films like Revenge Of The Sith & Danny The Dog/Unleashed is coming out this year, then I can get my mind of Die Hard 4.0

But my first priority is still (& allways will be) Star Wars Episode 3 Revenge Of The Sith.

Willis Plans Fall Die Hard 4.0 Shoot
Source: BBC February 9, 2005


While doing the promo rounds for his new action thriller Hostage in London, Bruce Willis told the BBC that a fourth "Die Hard" movie is moving ahead.

"'Die Hard 4.0' is being written as we speak, and if all goes well we'll be shooting it in Autumn on the east coast of the United States."

As he previously said, he added that "John McClane has retired as a cop, and that's all that Fox have allowed me to tell you about it."

Die Hard Update..

“Doug Richardson, who wrote [Willis’ latest film] Hostage, took a shot at Die Hard 4.0 and it’s a good idea. The script will be done by summer and they want to shoot it in the fall. McClane’s retired, he’s not a cop anymore.”

Yes, yes we knew that, we need more!

“It’s completely different from the other three films. The only one of the other three films that I thought had any merit to it was the first one. Actually, in the third one I think Sam Jackson’s work was really strong.”

Again with the vagueness, give us something concrete like… what’s with the 'point oh' in the title?

“Well, it has something to do with computers…”

Good, good. Now we’re getting somewhere. And is it true that you might kill off the vest-wearing icon in this instalment?

“I’ve heard that rumour! I like keeping those things a secret. But they didn’t want my character to be killed in Armageddon. It was in the original script, but once they saw the film, they were talking about sequels. But I was like, “I want to stick to the original script.” I don’t know what the outcome of Die Hard 4.0 will be. It feels like it should be the last one. Right now, if I retired the series, I would retire undefeated.”

And no amount of badgering would draw him in any further. Not even when we tackled him, forced him to the ground and threatened to make him watch Color of Night until all the details were ours. He’s a tough nut to crack, but then it is Bruce Willis and if Hans Gruber couldn’t get him to give up the detonators then what chance do we have? Unless… Anyone got any glass?

For the full interview with (and subsequent torture of) Bruce Willis, pick up the brand spanking new April issue of Empire, on sale now. Or subscribe here and never miss another copy.

Thanks for the update Mason.

I am not really a Bruce Willis fan though. I view him just like The Rock and Vin Diesel, nothing special in the action industry. In my opinion. ;)

The only movies i liked of Willis's is the Die Hard trilogy The Last Boyscout & The Sixth Sence. But those 5 movies are deffenetly awesome .. I am not really sure about Hostage .. we'll see. But I'll deffenetly dont think that he should be wieved as The Rock & Vin Diesel, he is not a steriotyped sort of person. ;)

I really don't see why they feel a need to return to Die Hard. I felt closure at the end of Die Hard 3. Heck, I have the trilogy box set and I don't really think they should add onto this trilogy. Could they not come up with another movie idea? So many sequals are bad so if they aren't having all of the original cast and crew come back it could be disasterous. This and Under Siege 3. It's been so long that both movies will require lots of work to return to the magic.
