Die Hard, Bruce Willis, Cop Out

Bruce Willis Ready to "Die Hard" Again

Bruce Willis Ready to "Die Hard" Again

Three years removed from what was arguably John McClane's most successful mission, "Live Free or Die Hard" star Bruce Willis is eager to fire up the magic factory of a fifth installment of the 22-year-old franchise.

"I think we're going to do a 'Die Hard 5' next year," Willis told MTV while doing press for his upcoming buddy comedy "Cop Out," co-starring Tracy Morgan.

"I would hire Len Wiseman (director of "Live Free or Die Hard") right now," said Willis.

And who can blame him. Wiseman managed to give "Live Free" a tongue-in-cheek comic book flair that freed the series from a bogus gravitas and allowed McClane to be the B-movie hero he truly is.
