Thanks to his wife, Emma Heming Willis, the 67-year-old actor was captured on Instagram in his return to Nakatomi Plaza in Century City, Calif., aka the Fox Plaza building in real life. The film, which has been endlessly replayed on TV over the years, shows McClane’s efforts to take down a group of terrorists who have taken over the hi-rise and captured hostages. The events take place on Christmas Eve, making many fans who consider it a holiday film.

The soundtrack accompanying the video features the Mormon Tabernacle Choir’s version of Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy.”
Earlier this year, Willis’s family announced that he would be stepping away from acting following an aphasia diagnosis, a disease that affects expression and comprehension.

Bruce Willis "wanted to" continue working following his aphasia diagnosis. Willis' attorney is setting the record straight after allegations surfaced that the actor's close friend and Hollywood director Randall Emmett pushed him to continue working. "My client continued working after his medical diagnosis because he wanted to work and was able to do so, just like many others diagnosed with aphasia who are capable of continuing to work," Willis' attorney Martin Singer told the Los Angeles Times.
aphasia, a new report claims.A Los Angeles Times exposé on movie producer Randall Emmett accused the 51-year-old of defrauding investors, rampant drug use, tackling his ex-fiancée — “Vanderpump Rules” star Lala Kent, 31 — and offering acting roles for sexual favors.Sources also said Emmett was happy to keep attaching Willis’ name to films, even as the action hero stumbled.In September 2020, Emmett was directing Willis, now 67, in “Midnight in the Switchgrass” and couldn’t get the actor to kick in a door — even with the help of a stunt coordinator, according to several crew members. In frustration, he left the set and a confused Willis asked, “Did I do something wrong?”“You would have to be blind to not see him struggling,” Alicia Haverland, a property manager on the film, said.
