Die Hard 5 Will Be Titled A Good Day to Die Hard?

I love this franchise, John McClane is one of my favourite characters and Bruce Wills one of my favourite actors, despite being PG-13 I personally felt Len Wiseman's 'Live Free or Die Hard' was the best of the sequels, but sadly he decided not to come back for another movie and John Moore was recently chosen to take over the directors chair, not a popular choice with myself or most fans.
Now we have a title and news from /film that shines some light on the 5th Die Hard, the release date in particular should set alarm bells off.
Tom Rothman, co-chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fox Filmed Entertainment, appeared on Jim Rome this morning to announce the future of the Die Hard franchise. Apparently Rome is a huge fan of the Die Hard series and somehow scored the exclusive. Details can be found after the jump.
Here is what was revealed:
- Die Hard 5 will be titled A Good Day to Die Hard
- Shooting begins in January 2012
- The sequel will be released on February 14th, 2013 (Valentine’s Day).
- The story is set in Russia and begins with John McClane heading to Moscow to sweet talk some cops into letting his apparently-wayward son out of jail for something he did, but when he gets there, things surrounding his son’s arrest are not as they appear and world-threatening terrorist hijinks ensue.
- McClane, Jr. has yet to be cast.
- They still don’t know if it will be rated PG-13 or R.
