Bruce Willis has revealed that he is set to star in another "Die Hard" sequel.

The "Armageddon" actor, who shot to fame playing the hardened cop John McClane in the original film, says he is finally ready to reprise the famous role, after previously insisting he was turning his back on action movies, said a celebrity portal.

He said: "It (will be) 'Die Hard 4'. They're working on the script right now. Doug Richardson, who wrote my latest movie 'Hostage', is typing away furiously."

It is not yet known when filming on the project might begin. Willis is tight lipped about the plot.
