Jai Courtney joins the Die Hard franchise with its fifth outing, A Good Day to Die Hard.

Instead, it turns out that Courtney’s working undercover for the CIA and an integral player in a major operation involving Chernobyl.
In this interview video courtesy of 20th Century Fox, Courtney talks about joining the franchise, his character, and Jack’s relationship with John. He also discusses the story and working with Bruce Willis.
The Plot:
Iconoclastic, take-no-prisoners cop John McClane, for the first time, finds himself on foreign soil after traveling to Moscow to help his wayward son Jack–unaware that Jack is really a highly-trained CIA operative out to stop a nuclear weapons heist. With the Russian underworld in pursuit and battling a countdown to war, the two McClanes discover that their opposing methods make them unstoppable heroes.
