Die Hard 6 will be both a prequel & sequel?

Despite the underwhelming fifth film in the franchise, it would seem Fox is not quite done with “Die Hard” just yet.

According to Deadline, the studio is looking to get Len Wiseman back on board to helm and develop a sixth “Die Hard” film with producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura.

While the plans are pretty premature at this stage, the project is apparently being referred to as “Die Hard Year One” and will be somewhat of a sequel and prequel in the one film.

The team behind the project want to leave room for star Bruce Willis to return to reprise his role as John McClane, however they’re also looking to develop a story line that will be set in part in 1979, showing how gritty New York City cop John McClane became a die hard kind of guy.

So, could Joseph Gordon-Levitt be in line to play a young John McClane? After all, he was pretty convincing as Willis’ younger self in “Looper”…
