Len Wiseman (Underworld) is in negotiations to direct Die Hard 4 for 20th Century Fox.

Mark Bomback and Doug Richardson wrote the screenplay, which at one point was titled Die Hard 4.0. Bruce has hinted they will start shooting in the fall in New York; a 2007 release has been scheduled.

Live Free or Die Hard was released June 27th, 2007 and stars Bruce Willis, Timothy Olyphant, Justin Long, Maggie Q, Cliff Curtis, Jonathan Sadowski, Andrew Friedman, Kevin Smith. The film is directed by Len Wiseman.
