Die Hard franchise
Interestingly, back in 2018, the sixth instalment of the hit movie franchise was in development with 20th Century Fox. However, after the studio merged with Disney, the film appeared to have been put on the back burner. In 2018, it was revealed that the sixth Die Hard film will be called McClane, following rumours that it will bear the title Die Hard: Year One.
The film was expected to follow a 60-year-old McClane and a younger incarnation of himself in his 20s. The sixth instalment would have come after the original 1988 film Die Hard, 1990's Die Hard 2, 1995's Die Hard With a Vengeance, 2007's Live Free or Die Hard and 2013's A Good Day to Die Hard.
