Bruce Willis talks ‘Good Day to Die Hard’ car chase, praises original as new photo lands
Bruce Willis returns as John McClane, this time battling bad guys alongside his son, played by Jai Courtney, in “A Good Day to Die Hard.”
Now, talking with Total Film in the latest issue, Willis discusses the mammoth car chase that took 78 days to shoot – Willis refused to take responsibility, and admitted that the original “Die Hard” is still the standard to aspire to.
“Everybody has their own version of what would be a great, big action sequence in the next Die Hard film,” Willis said. “Sometimes it goes outside the box; sometimes it seems organic to the story. It’s just something you shoot – something you do.
“I’m really pleased to continue to be asked back to do other versions and other incarnations of Die Hard. The first one really is… that’s all there is. Everything else is just trying to be as good as that film.”
