Bruce Willis Pitted Against Michelangelo Thieves In “PRECIOUS CARGO”

Actor Bruce Willis, who practically invented the gleeful and gritty action hero playing the wise-cracking police detective John McClane in the classic “Die Hard” film series is back on familiar ground playing crime boss Eddie Filosa in “Precious Cargo” which also stars Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Claire Forlani.   

After a botched heist, Eddie, a murderous crime boss goes after Karen (Forlani), a duplicitous femme fatale who recruits her ex-lover Jack to steal a cargo loaded with precious gems.  “Precious Cargo” is set in a world of double crossing professional thieves where a crime boss tries to score the profits from another crook’s heist.

“Jack is a man who tries to make easy money the hard way,” said Gosselaar about the charming, laid-back thief and con artist he plays.  “He’s always trying to go for the score.  He dreams of retiring to a far-off tropical location, opening up a dive shop and enjoying the good life, however, he’s still working these high-risk jobs to make money, so he’s not there yet.”

Gosselaar was thrilled to be working with one of his screen idols. “It was fantastic to work alongside somebody that you’ve followed from a young age, although I supposed he hates to hear that,” said the 41-year-old actor.  “Bruce was one of the action heroes I grew up with, so to watch him and work alongside him was remarkable.”

“It was an absolute pleasure to have the opportunity to collaborate with Bruce on this project,” said director Max Adams.  “I’m a big fan of Bruce Willis and his work.  As a first time director never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined standing in front of him – Detective John McClane from Die Hard, The Last Boy Scout – you name it! – hearing my words come out of his mouth.”

The relationship between Jack and Karen is a complex and ambiguous which both actors have strong opinions about.    “Jack will always have a love for Karen,” said Gosselaar.  “We see it throughout the film– as well as we see why they shouldn’t be together.  More times than not, they should be together. Although Jack may not trust the unpredictable, manipulative Karen, it’s clear he loves her.  And while Karen clearly trusts Jack, it’s not so clear she cares about him—much less loves him.  In fact, is When Eddie reveals the depth of Karen’s lies to Jack, one wonders if Karen is Karen capable of caring about anyone?

“I think it’s totally ambiguous and that question is what makes it so much fun,” said Forlani.  “I think the audience projects things on to characters and make their own decisions about whether she does or she doesn’t care about Jack.”    According to Forlani, one of the best things about the characters and story in Precious Cargo is the interchangeability of the roles of the men and women in the film.

“Max has written the part in a fascinating way because the women could be men – and vice-versa.  The roles are interchangeable,” she said.  “It’s so rare you read that level of equality in women’s roles where you could interchange the men and women without changing anything else. I thought that was absolutely brilliant.  I think it’s a sign of the times to get to play women like this. It’s great.”

“Precious Cargo” opens May 11 from OctoArts Films International.

REEL DEAL: Bruce Willis Creates Humanoids In Explosive Sci-Fi Action "VICE"

Bruce Willis gears for action against both humans and robots in the sci-fi “Vice” where he plays Julian Michaels who has designed the ultimate resort – a place where anything goes and the customers can play out their wildest fantasies with artificial inhabitants who look, think and feel like humans.

REEL DEAL: Bruce Willis In Unrelenting Action Film “THE PRINCE”

Bruce Willis  leads a venerable group of veterans and newcomers in “The Prince,” a non-stop action film that forces a retired crime boss back into the seedy underworld he’d left behind. For twenty years Paul Brennan (Patric), a retired New Orleans crime boss, has lived a quiet life off the grid, running an auto repair garage in remote Mississippi. When his teenage daughter Beth goes missing, Paul is forced to return to the city and face his former enemies including  Omar (Willis), the city’s most powerful man whose family he mistakenly took out, in an explosive final standoff that may offer redemption for Paul’s past mistakes.

Prolific producer, Randall Emmett (“2 Guns,” “Escape Plan”) read the script and immediately knew it was a winner in the vein of his previous action packed movies. “Bruce really fell for the material, as well as Jason, and then John came on board and I felt that actors of this caliber would bring something really special to the characters and to the story of a man having to face his old demons when his daughter disappears in the same crime universe that he used to live in.” says Emmett.

As each new bit of information gets Paul closer to Beth, it also exposes him to Omar (Bruce Willis), “a very powerful man in the city of New Orleans who put a price on Paul’s head the day Paul mistakenly killed Omar’s wife and daughter,” explains director Brian Miller. “Like Open Range or Unforgiven, this is a modern day western where this gun slinger’s daughter goes missing in this city where he is a wanted man.”

“Bruce is an old school pro that can just turn on the charm; I would whisper in his ear and wound him up a little bit, and then just let him go,” recalls Miller, of the character that does little to hide his thirst for vengeance. Omar, finely dressed with an air of power about him, tightens his grip on the phone, as a car follows Paul’s Explorer through an industrial part of town. The voice on the other end assures Omar that everyone in the bar knew The Prince the second he walked in the door.

Miller, known for his film-noir and cutting edge work in the action thrillers “Officer Down” and “The Outsider,”   “The Prince” brings the audience in the gritty underworld of revenge-seeking gangsters.  The movie finds Paul Brennan (Patric) twenty years after his retirement, a retired New Orleans crime boss, has lived a quiet life off the grid, running an auto repair garage in remote Mississippi. When his teenage daughter goes missing, Paul is forced to return to the city and face his former enemies.

REEL DEAL: G.I. Joe:Retaliation - Byung-hun Lee SPOTLIGHT

Korean Superstar sensation Byung-hun Lee is back as Storm Shadow in G.I. JOE 2

Korean superstar Byung-hun Lee, who reprises his role of STORM SHADOW, was excited by the possibility to explore the more internal side of the character. “If I had just a lot of sword fights and kicks in the first movie, this time my character (Storm Shadow) is seen more up close. It has a dramatic aspect that shows his history, inner conflicts. I loved how much of my acting I could show this time around... but I still think I could have been much more competent in a Korean film. “Frankly speaking, it’s hard. Casual speech and delivering lines in English belong to two different dimensions. Because you use a foreign language, you’ve got to be sure you could recite lines without a mistake even if someone woke you up from a nap. “On the set, someone from the crew told me after I read my line that my pronunciation was off for one of the words. Right after my head became completely blank, busy thinking about that one line. Sometimes I felt I was back in the earliest days of my career.”

REEL DEAL: A Good Day To Die Hard REVIEW

Bruce Wilis is back and still not dying even after 25 years of the iconic Die Hard series which have four movies and now back this new action-packed movie now featuring his son Jack (Jai Courtney) in A Good Day To Die Hard.

This would be the 5th movie in the series where John McClane (Bruce Willis) return to hard core action even after 25 year and finds himself in the foreign city of Moscow. Being a first timer and tourist in Russia. And as much he would like to stay out of trouble, it still finds him and his son as they both stop a possible nuclear warfare.

Expect a lot of explosions, gune fire, and more explosions for this movie as it would still keep up to the promise of providing high octane action with firearms and and with physical fights. Now McClane will have to survive  an unknown terrain and without his friend by his side by his son who works a secret agent.

But even with his situation, indeed we would expect John to do the unexpected, move mountains and even dive into the unknown just to bring people to justice.

REEL DEAL: A Good Day To Die Hard - Bruce Willis

BRUCE WILLIS RESETS THE ACTION BAR HIGHEST IN “A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD”

OPENS IN MORE THAN 200 SCREENS (PHILS.) ON FEBRUARY 13

Bruce Willis  has demonstrated incredible versatility in a career that has included such diverse characterizations as the prizefighter in Quentin Tarantino’s “Pulp Fiction” (1994 Palme D’Or winner at Cannes), the philandering contractor in Robert Benton’s “Nobody’s Fool,” the heroic time traveler in Terry Gilliam’s “12 Monkeys,” the traumatized Vietnam veteran in Norman Jewison’s “In Country,” the compassionate child psychologist in M. Night Shyamalan’s Oscar®-nominated “The Sixth Sense” (for which he won the People’s Choice Award) and his signature role, Detective John McClane, in the “Die Hard” films.

John McClane – the hard-talking detective who always seems to be in the wrong place but doing the right thing – has become one of Hollywood’s iconic characters and Willis has enjoyed the role, reprising it in four sequels. The latest Die Hard movie, “A Good Day To Die Hard” sees McClane in Moscow, searching for his estranged son, Jack (rising Australian star Jai Courtney). 

Bruce Willis reprises his iconic role as police detective John McClane in A Good Day to Die Hard, set against the backdrop of deadly corruption and political vendetta in Russia.  McClane arrives in Moscow to track down his estranged son, Jack, (Jai Courtney), and is stunned to discover he’s working undercover to protect a government whistleblower, Komarov (Sebastian Koch).  With their own necks on the line, the McClanes are forced to overcome their differences in order to get Komarov to safety and thwart a potentially disastrous crime in the most desolate place on Earth - Chernobyl.

Willis is McClane, and he embraced the opportunity to pay another visit to the beloved character that has a habit of finding himself in the wrong place at the right time.  Does trouble find John McClane or does John McClane seek it out?  “Well, he’s certainly attracted to trouble,” says the actor, “but yes, trouble also seems determined to find him.”

“I find it an interesting exercise to reach for the bar we set with the series, and I enjoy checking in with McClane at different stages in his life,” Willis continues. “In this story, he’s at a point where men tend to reflect on their past. For McClane, it’s the estranged relationship with his son. They haven’t spoken in some time, and the first news he’s received of him is about his arrest in Moscow.”

“This is a twist on the usual scenario in which McClane is the unexpected party guest who ruins some criminal mastermind’s well-conceived plan,” says Young. “This time, he spoils his own son’s painstaking and dangerous undercover operation.  With Jack’s cover literally blown, he and his father try to get Komarov safely out of Moscow and into Chernobyl, where he can retrieve the incriminating files that will put Chagarin away.  The shell-shocked Russian suddenly finds himself stuck between the feuding McClanes, a more dangerous proposition than prison, as John appears to be half-cocked and fully loaded.  But the three men are intent on making their way out of town by any means necessary, and begin to form an uneasy 

Under a hail of gunfire, the McClanes manage a desperate escape, and must regroup to figure out how to get to rescue Komarov, who is now in the hands of Alik’s men.  Jack McClane is out of answers, and must turn to John for help.

 Says Jai Courtney: “Jack takes a methodical approach to his work, probably out of a backlash to his father’s knack for winging it and hoping for the best.  But he’s now in a situation where there’s no book to guide him, he has no answers and is at the breaking point. His dad’s instincts are to never quit, regardless of the cost, and in this terrible situation Jack sees that very clearly - maybe for the first time. It gives Jack deeper insight and respect for John’s values. It’s a turning point.”

Adds executive producer Jason Keller: “John and Jack find themselves off the grid, in deep trouble, with no help. Jack doesn’t know what to do, and his father pulls him back and says that we can do this. And the key moment in the film happens when Jack chooses to swallow his pride and accept John’s help. Now you have two McClanes working together, which is more than our bad guys ever bargained for.”

               

“A Good Day To Die Hard” opens February 13 in more than 200 screens nationwide from 20th Century Fox to be distributed by Warner Bros.
