Over the past few weeks I’ve become increasingly aware of Jai Courtney – the Australian actor who garnered attention for his work in “Spartacus: War of the Damned” as Varro. The actor was plenty badass fighting against Tom Cruise in JACK REACHER and he now stars as Bruce Willis’ son in A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD.
When I sat down with Jai, we talked about DIE HARD and how the role came his way. Not only can Courtney really pull off the action, he happens to be a pretty damn good actor as well. Both he and Willis make a terrific pair in the latest DIE HARD installment and it was a pleasure to see a nice father and son relationship between them. Truth be told, I’d love to see how these two characters develop for another go around. A GOOD DAY TO DIE HARD opens this Friday at a theatre near you!
