New Campy-Voiced Trailer Released For 'Die Hard'


Twentieth Century Fox has chosen sides.

On Tuesday, the studio released a new cut of the Die Hard trailer, arguing that not only is it a Christmas movie, it is "the greatest Christmas story ever told."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the new trailer is almost 90 seconds in length and is cut to be more of a comedy — like Home Alone — than a classic action flick. The campy voiceover and upbeat music help push the argument that the 1988 film is indeed a Christmas romp.

That debate has (jokingly) raged on for years. Star Bruce Willis dealt a massive blow to the argument that the film is a holiday staple when, during his Comedy Central Roast in July, he closed the evening declaring that Die Hard is not a Christmas pic: "It's a f#cking Bruce Willis movie!"

Still, a recent study conducted by StreamingObserver showed that Die Hard was the most searched Christmas film streaming wise for multiple states.
