The Global Dispatch revealed that "John McClane will head to Japan to be honored on the anniversary of the heroics from the first film."
Writer Ben Trebilcook continued “I can say that McClane is invited to Tokyo by the Nakatomi Corporation, to be commended for his bravery and efforts in saving 36 lives, celebrating this on the 30th anniversary of the (West Coast Tower) Hostage Crisis.”
He feels the film will be, in the vein of the movies: Black Rain and Rising Sun, in using the culture clash and the Yakuza (Japanese mafia) to bring John McClane back to his family...again ("siblings" Jai Courtney and Mary Elizabeth Winstead.) Willis wants to FINISH the story once and for all- after the stupid, confusing, James Bond driven, A Good Day to Die Hard, last year.
"McClane began on his own and should end on his own" stated the ...cook. He explained,"Of course he’s had assistance in various guises, aiding him in his ventures; but it’s not Lethal Weapon or a Jackie Chan film.”
The producers want to bring the violent, thieves-as-terrorists action saga "back the basics" and feel the "inclusion of Jackson would be an interesting" way to say proper good bye, to the famed demi-clever, semi-racist/smart assed cop.
