DIE HARD 5 IS COMING WITH NEW DIRECTOR AND PLOT


"Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker". No pun intended and certainly I am sorry for that offensive opening remark because it is just badass enough before you kick somebody's ass. If you have been following any or all of the Die Hard movies, you will certainly be aware that our cop hero John McClane (portrayed by the equally bad-ass Bruce Willis) will always says that before he vanquishes the villain. Legendary one liner? Yes. How about hearing him saying it for the fifth time? Really? Read more after the jump for details.

Details about the fifth Die hard movie is certainly not a new headline in Hollywood. For years since the 2007's Live Free or Die Hard (technically it's Die Hard 4), news and rumors for a possible fifth round was always an open option for the studio, 20th Century Fox. Earlier this year, director Noam Murro (Smart People) had been hired to helm the fifth movie but was recently roped away and chosen to helm 300: Battle of Artemisia (prequel to 300) instead. With his departure to opt out from the project, Die Hard 5 has found a new lifeline apparently as 20th Century Fox has already offered the directorial job to someone else - John Moore.

John Moore may not have good movies in his resume. Past titles like Max Payne, The Omen, Flight of the Phoenix and Behind Enemy Lines are not something people do enjoy. Slash Film reported that while the offer has been made, Moore has not made a decision yet.

The official plot for the fifth movie is not yet confirmed but insiders believed that "Die Hard 5 will take the franchise international as John McClane finds himself and his son “drawn into a conflict with local forces” in Russia," according to Slash Film as well.

DISCUSS: Now are you excited for a new round of "Yippee-ki-yay" which will be happening in Russia this time around?
