Taylor Fry: From 'Die Hard' fame to life in Oceanside bliss
Taylor Fry, a former child star known for her role as Lucy McClane in the iconic movie "Die Hard," was spotted during an outing in Oceanside, California.
Taylor Fry, the 43-year-old former actress, played the role of John McClane's daughter, portrayed by Bruce Willis in the 1988 blockbuster.
The movie, which became a classic of action cinema, earned about $140 million on a budget of $25-35 million and has spawned numerous sequels. "Die Hard" is often considered a Christmas movie as its plot takes place on Christmas Eve.
