Bruce Willis to Return as John McClane in Die Hard 4
Source: Variety Monday, October 13, 2003
20th Century Fox has hired Mark Bomback to write Die Hard 4, which centers on the continuing adventures of rogue hero John McClane. Pending approval of the script, Bruce Willis would return in the role and produce through his Cheyenne Productions.
Bomback wrote the upcoming Godsend, starring Robert De Niro and Greg Kinnear, for Lions Gate Films. The scribe also worked with Cheyenne on Reunion, The Tourist and Me Again.
Fox envisions the film as a tentpole that could resume the franchise.
I just saw Casablanca. Rick Blaine was definitly a badass before motherfucking was even invented. He also wins at best cig smoking.
Peter Lorre was pretty badass too.
If the make that remake (which they shouldn't) Steve Buscemi should play his character.
QuoteSteve Buscemi should play his character.
Good call. If they
must create a remake....blech.
Jesus.
I just saw Double Indemnity. Walter Neff was a fucking badass and, like Rick Blaine, wins at cig smoking too.
I wish I could light matches like that.
Shit, I had a animated gif of that I would use it as my avater, it's so badass. :(

Chow Yun-Fat Says He's Misunderstood
Actor Chow Yun-fat says he is misunderstood in Hollywood, where he is cast mostly in action films involving gunplay.
"I'm unlucky. Nobody understands me," the Ming Pao Daily News quoted Yun-fat as telling a group of university students. "But I can wait. I hope someone who understands me will come along."
Chow said Hollywood is fixated on his on-screen gunfighter style, the Wen Wei Po newspaper reported Saturday.
"Foreigners look me up because of John Woo's movies, only because they see that my gun scenes are good," Chow said, referring to the Hong Kong director who has also moved on to Hollywood.
Woo directed Chow in the Hong Kong productions "A Better Tomorrow" and "Hard Boiled," which showcased Chow's action-scene prowess. But the actor also starred in romance films such as "An Autumn's Tale" and "Love in a Fallen City."
