Fox News
The action (and possibly Christmas) movie Die Hard was released in theaters on this day in history, July 15, 1988. The movie starred Bruce Willis.
The hit movie would result in four sequels: "Die Hard 2," "Die Hard with a Vengeance," "Live Free or Die Hard," and "A Good Day to Die Hard" — as well as a video game series. Christine Rousselle is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
The plot centers around McClane, a New York City police officer, and his efforts to rescue his estranged wife and her colleagues after they're taken hostage at a Christmas party by a terrorist organization.
