Charlize Theron is game to tackle a lesbian twist on a Die Hard spin-off. The Mad Max: Fury Road star expressed her interest in the movie proposal after reading a viral Twitter post from a social media user known as Francis O. , who suggested Theron take over from Bruce Willis in the action franchise and tackle a same-sex storyline.
Referencing Kristen Stewart's new holiday romantic comedy Happiest Season, the fan wrote, "Lesbian Christmas rom coms are all well and good but what I REALLY want is a Die Hard where Charlize Theron goes on a rampage to save her wife. " The tweet was originally posted on Saturday, but after making the rounds online, it finally caught Theron's eye, and she gave her backing to the idea on Monday night.
