【商台互動娛樂組】已有二十多年的歷史的經典動作猛片《虎膽龍威》（Die Hard），自2007年第4集上映後，第5集一直未有任何聲氣，延至最近《虎》迷終於收到好消息。

日前曾參與製作《變種特攻：狼人外傳》（X-Men Origins: Wolverine）的編劇Skip Woods稱，正在籌備《虎膽龍威5》的劇本，現在與二十世紀霍士進行洽談中，監製則由Alex Young擔任，主角John McClane相信繼續由布斯韋利士（Bruce Willis）飾演。布斯上年接受訪問時已透露有機會再拍《虎膽龍威5》，故事更會擴展至全球。加上與《虎膽龍威4.0》（Live Free or Die Hard）的班底合作愉快，希望可與導演Len Wisemen再戰銀幕。

布斯今年相當忙碌，與史泰龍（Sylvester Stallone）合作的電影《The Expendables》及漫畫改編電影《Red》相繼上畫，以電視遊戲作藍本的《Kane & Lynch》亦即將開拍，之後他就有檔期拍《虎膽龍威5》了。

Skip Woods, Fox making John McClane die hard one more time

John McClane’s string of bad luck may not yet be over.

“Hitman” screenwriter Skip Woods is in negotiations with Fox to take a crack at a new “Die Hard” script. The New York cop known for consistently being in the wrong place at the right time has already survived four run-ins with terrorists, traitors and psychotic loose cannons of one stripe or another.

In his last outing, “Live Free or Die Hard,” written by Mark Bomback and directed by Len Wiseman in 2007, McClane battled Web terrorists to $378 million in worldwide grosses — 20 years after first pitching Hans Gruber out a broken window at Fox towers. So the studio justifiably sees another installment as a strong bet.

There’s no word yet on the new project’s story line, but former Fox exec Alex Young (“Unstoppable”) is producing.

The CAA-repped Woods has already co-written several tentpole projects for Fox, including “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” and the forthcoming TV adaptation “The A-Team.” He also wrote the original screenplay for “Swordfish.”

McClane himself, the CAA-repped Bruce Willis, has several projects moving toward release — Sylvester’s Stallone’s “The Expendables” and the Summit actioner “Red” — and then a late-summer production start on the Lionsgate video game adaptation “Kane & Lynch.”

After that, he’s free again to dig out the stubble, filthy T-shirt and beleaguered wisecracks.
