After navigating through the trash filled streets in Budapest, Bruce Willis sprang into action for his new movie A Good Day to Die Hard.
The star is in the Hungarian capital shooting scenes for the fifth installment of the wildly successful film franchise.
Dressed in khaki trousers, dark jacket and black shoes, the 57-year-old looked ready to tackle any trouble that might come his way, including a street filled with crumpled papers, plastic bags and angry, flag-waving men.With a large duffel bag in one hand, Bruce briskly walked through a crowd of men who were staging a protest for the film.The veteran actor has easily slipped back into playing Die Hard's John McClane, 25 years after he first starred as the character.The veteran actor has easily slipped back into playing Die Hard's John McClane, 25 years after he first starred as the character.The veteran actor has easily slipped back into playing Die Hard's John McClane, 25 years after he first starred as the character.
A Good Day to Die Hard, which will be released on Valentine's Day next year, is set in Russia and reunites the hard-nosed detective with his estranged son.
The massive production is rumoured to have a budget of more than $100,000,000.
The film is being directed by John Moore, a native of Dundalk, Ireland, whose previous credits include Behind Enemy Lines and Max Payne.
Producer Tom Rothman told MTV: 'It’s all set in Russia. Well there’s bookend scenes in New York, but it’s John McClane, goes to Russia and I think the technical term... is f***s everything up.
'And the fun part about it is there’s a great moment where he says "It’s good a day as any to die".'
Bruce's onscreen son Jack will be played by Jai Courtney, and the paternal storyline makes the film much more emotion driven than previous outings.
Rothman said: 'He thinks his kid is a screw-up but, in fact, it’s the opposite.
'The kid is more like the father than the father thinks. So it’s very, like all the best of the classic 'Die Hards,' very emotionally driven and very kick-ass.'
It's star who is a father-of-four may be approaching his 60th birthday but that hasn't slowed him down as he continues to film more and more movies.
