But 30 years on, he's still ready and raring to go with another blockbuster.

Speaking to NBC while promoting his latest film Death Wish, he said: "I am about to wing out to California to start to see what the script looks like.”

Asked if he will make the film, he added: "I think so.”

And speaking about the original flick, which saw him battle a terrorist called Hans Gruber - played by the late Alan Rickman - he said: "There was a slow start on that one and then it barked."

Indeed, Die Hard spawned a sequel in 1990, Die Hard 2 and a third movie five years later called Die Hard with a Vengeance.

But John McClane still wasn't finished, and returned in 2007 with Live Free or Die Hard.

The last movie in the franchise was 2013's A Good Day to Die Hard, however it received relatively negative reviews from critics.

However the franchise not only totalled up £1.2 billion earnings at the worldwide box office, it is beloved by fans, who will no doubt be shouting "Yippee ki-yay" that a sixth instalment is in the works.
