Bruce Willis to Retire Due to Health Problems - Dismas - 03-31-2022
Known for some of the best action movies, Bruce Willis will be retiring due to aphasia. Aphasia affects a person's cognitive abilities when it comes to processing language. A Day to Die will be his last film.
Quote:Bruce Willis, the star of the "Die Hard" franchise and dozens of other action movies, will retire from acting after being diagnosed with aphasia, a disease that has hampered his "cognitive abilities," his family said on Wednesday.
Willis, 67, rose to fame in the 1980s comedy-drama TV series "Moonlighting," and has appeared in about 100 films across his four-decade career, garnering acclaim for his roles in "Pulp Fiction" and "The Sixth Sense," and winning a Golden Globe Award and two Emmys.
But Willis is perhaps best known for playing the tough-as-nails New York cop who pursued bad guys in the five "Die Hard" movies, released from 1988 to 2013.
"This is a really challenging time for our family and we are so appreciative of your continued love, compassion and support," his family said in a statement.

That's a shame. I hope the film has a huge turnout as a result though. Would be awesome for him to go out on a high.
