“Bruce Willis's costume department had 17 undershirts on hand, each in varying stages of wear and tear, to match the degradation of his shirt during the film.” 
  
“Bruce Willis was paid an unprecedented $5 million for the role, a figure that was approved by Fox President Rupert Murdoch.” 
  
“In 2007, Bruce Willis donated the iconic undershirt worn by John McClane to the Smithsonian Museum.” 
  
“The scene where Bruce Willis meets Alan Rickman was not rehearsed to increase the sense of spontaneity between the two actors.”
