We already knew that "A Good Day To Die Hard" is headed to Russia, but what we didn't realize is that it's almost exclusively set there.

MTV News recently caught up with Fox CEO Tom Rothman at CinemaCon to chat about the many films the studio has on its roster, and he confirmed that "Die Hard 5" is gearing up to start this week. Even though its setting will be a departure from the previous "Die Hard" movies, Rothman feels this one keeps in tone with the classic installments of the series.

"It's all set in Russia -- well, there's bookend scenes in New York," Rothman said. "But it's John McClaine goes to Russia and I think the technical term -- which I don’t know if you can say on MTV, maybe you can -- is he f--ks everything up."

He might be, ahem, messing everything up, but there's one new character who's going to be there to bring it all back together. "A Good Day To Die Hard" introduces John "Jack" McClaine, the estranged son of Bruce Willis' character, and apparently the dynamic between the two of them is going to be a blast to watch on the big screen.

"The fun part about it though, 'A Good Day To Die Hard' -- and there's a great moment where he says, 'It's as good a day as any to die' -- but it's really a father/son story," Rothman said. "He thinks his kid is a screw up, but it's actually the opposite. The kid is more like the father than the father. Like all the best of the classic 'Die Hards,' it's very emotionally driven, and very kick ass."

"A Good Day To Die Hard" is scheduled to hit theaters on February 14, 2013.

滬江娛樂快訊:2007年的《虎膽龍威4》將闊別12年的經(jīng)典動作系列片重新拉回到了大銀幕,其成功緊接著也促成了第五部的投拍。20世紀??怂笴EO湯姆·羅斯曼(Tom Rothman)向媒體透露了關(guān)于此片的更多細節(jié),曾執(zhí)導(dǎo)《馬克思·佩恩》的約翰·摩爾將出任本片導(dǎo)演,另外還有一枚新增驚喜角色,就是由Jai Courtney飾演的麥克雷恩的兒子。

據(jù)羅斯曼介紹,《虎膽龍威5》之所以會肯定好看,原因有二,“1.約翰·麥克雷恩去了俄羅斯,一個美國本土英雄要在別人的地盤上耍威風(fēng)了,難度系數(shù)增加了;2.麥克雷恩的兒子出現(xiàn)了。雖然他自己是一個好警察,但卻不是一個好爸爸,跟已經(jīng)成年的兒子很少接觸,但這次父子兩人齊上陣的經(jīng)歷肯定會增加他們之間的了解?!?/p>

曾經(jīng)出演《斯巴達克斯:復(fù)仇》的Jai Courtney將飾演麥克雷恩的兒子,劇情設(shè)置上是安排了麥克雷恩去俄羅斯保釋他出獄,這讓麥克雷恩斷定這個孩子肯定是玩物喪志。但見面之后才知道兩個人是一脈相承,懲惡揚善這件事情上,他兒子簡直就是自己的年輕加強版。

本片定于2013年2月14日的情人節(jié)檔期在美國上映。
