He wrote Une journée en enfer - Die Hard 3 (1995), re-conceived from his original spec script "Simon Says". He followed that with Jumanji (1995). His script for the Le Saint (1997) was completely re-written by others. After this frustration, he enjoyed a long working friendship with producer Jerry Bruckheimer with whom he collaborated on many projects since 1996. He re-wrote the whole script for Rock (1996) without credit, which he tried desperately to achieve via WGA arbitration.He did uncredited re-writes on Les ailes de l'enfer (1997) and the remake of 60 secondes chrono (2000) and received executive producer credits on both. Armageddon (1998), from Jonathan's original idea, was the second time Jonathan had the highest grossing film, worldwide, at the box office. The other was Une journée en enfer - Die Hard 3 (1995).
