Die Hard 6

But if the 6th one is going to be a prequel well my ideal young John McClane would be either Scott Eastwood or Garrett Hedlund in the role that made Bruce Willis into a star

neither one can act for **** and neither one looks remotely like Willis. I can't think of any known actor who fits a Bruce Willis type. Yeah Statham ia bruce willis-ish but to old. Might be up to an unknown actor at this point.
 
Antony Starr. He's got an entire TV show proving he's the man to play McClane.
 
I get the feeling this thing is dead. If they were THAT serious, it'd be fast-tracked right now...
 
Though I hope this idea is dead I doubt they will give up that easily. The studio has been rather silent on it for a while however.
 
I'd rather see Len Wiseman do something new instead. Die Hard's a dead franchise. Make a new action movie with new characters.

People might hate this example, but I mean Non-Stop was basically of the Die Hard mold, but it was still an original movie. The movie didn't get great reviews, but it didn't get trashed either. It did well at the box office. Good little movie and an original script.

It doesn't have to even be like that. But I mean, try something different? I don't think we can do anything else with Die Hard. You grew up his kids and got them involved. What else can you do at this point? No one liked the last movie.
 
This is such a bad idea. He was supposed to just be a regular cop before events of the first movie.
 
Eh that revelation isn't new. We knew that from when Wiseman tweeted that title card of "Year One".

Yeah, like something I don't care about, 'cause Len Wiseman is the posterboy for today's bland and weak filmmakers. Other than knowing how to create some pretty image, there's not much more to him.
 
Forget the decline of Terminator or Alien franchises. This franchise's decline is...ugh
 
Guy's we all know who should play a young John right? Come on down Joseph Gordan Levitt.
 
The Die Hard series is like a lollipop.

You start licking the bottom where it’s lovely chocolate, but half way up it turns into dog s***. By the time you reach the top, all your licking is the s***.

I should have been a film critic.
 
So will this be the Genisys of the Die Hard franchise? Or was that the last one?

Last one. Fifth film in the series where we had the great Jai Courtey honor us with his presence.

As far as this one goes, a young John McClane prequel sounds like such a lame idea. What is it with Fox these days and prequels? :funny:

I'd much rather the torch be passed to his daughter Lucy McClane, with her dad in a supporting role. I :hrt: MEW. She's so damn underrated.
 
My mind keeps blocking this idea out, but every now and then there is some piece of info to remind me it's happening.

How old was John McClain in the first Die Hard? 34 or something?
 
Yeah, it’s just such a stupid idea I can’t believe they are still going ahead with it.
 
I just had an awful thought: Sony it and do spin-off prequels for each of Hans’ henchmen.
 
If they're going young, do it right. Cast a 10 year old John McClane on the playground stopping a bunch of 8 graders from taking over the sandbox. He can meet Holly who's new to the school.

Or The Gruber Brothers. A movie about the 7-year old Grubers stealing from a candy store. :)
