Disney cancelled the long-awaited 'Die Hard 6'. Now, taking the indie route, we are bringing the series back to life for its proper conclusion.
This web series promises to satisfy fans and critics alike. It is crowdsourced, peer produced, and led by the showrunner himself (since 2017). We are raising funds to produce the pilot episodes.
"Philly is at total war, and blames me. The old hero became the new villain, I guess. Yippee-ki-yay, motherfuckers!" - Egg Pascha
Disclaimer: for legal reasons, certain names of characters (eg. Egg Pascha = John McClane/Joe Leland , Maundy Lindros = Holly Gennaro/Karen Leland) and locales (eg. Brandywine = Philadelphia) have been switched to protect ip. This program is actually titled 'easter' (working title), and attempts to bookend the novels The Detective + Nothing Lasts Forever. We are required to state that 'THIS PRODUCTION IS NOT IN COOPERATION WITH DISNEY OR THE ESTATE OF RODERICK THORP'. -That said, we may have a point-of-contact at Disney in Dana Larson.
tagline: Mental illness pits our aging gumshoe, Egg Pascha, against his most formidable foe - himself.

This has been in the works since 2017, with various green lights / red lights along the way. As this story goes back-and-forth between the year 1978 and present-day, the principal cast (ie. Reginald VelJohnson, Bonnie Bedelia, etc.) are all over 70+ years of age, and have informed this campaign that they are not willing to wait any longer. Hence, the urgency.
Yes, this is legit. Yes, this campaign is identical to the one launched on Kickstarter .com weeks ago, but that platform was stingy with reviewing it, then finally accepting it, and later opening it to crowdfunding (backers - most of whom were in-house bots, anyway) at the deadline, resulting in a failed effort. That page is still live, and referenced here to save space. Please visit there for a more thorough description.
