John Moore nabs directors chair for Die Hard 5
01 September 2011

It looks as though the hunt for a director for Die Hard 5 is over, with word that Max Payne director John Moore has nabbed the coveted directors chair to bring John McClane back to the big screen.
Moore has beaten out the likes of Joe Cornish, Justin Lin, Paul McGuigan, Gary Fleder and Nicolas Winding Refn after the search was started up again after original choice Noam Murro was poached to make 300 spin-off Battle of Artemisia.
Moore will shoot the Skip Woods penned script which reportedly has McClane and his son dealing with a threat in Russia.
