The Cold War may have been over two decades ago, but it could heat up again with the arrival of John McClane in Russia.
Bruce Willis is back as the cowboy cop from New York in A Good Day to Die Hard, the fifth installment of the franchise that made him a superstar in 1988, where Willis completed the Hollywood action hero trinity with Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger.
That same year, Sly invaded Afghanistan in Rambo III, Arnold was Twins with Danny DeVito while still bringing Red Heat on the streets of Chicago as a Soviet cop, Jean-Claude Van Damme becoming the "Muscles from Brussels" thanks to Bloodsport, and Steven Seagal demonstrating his Aikido skills to bad guys who thought they were Above The Law.
A Good Day to Die Hard shows that McClane's son Jack (Jai Courtney) is the "007 of Plainfield, New Jersey, as fighting terrorists is definitely the family business -- not to mention being the wrong guy at the wrong place at the wrong time-- , as two generations of McClane sets out to restore freedom, liberty, and democracy to the free world.
A Good Day to Die Hard comes out this Valentine's Day, so check out the latest trailer on iTunes.
