Bruce Willis is stepping away from acting, a move that followed his recent diagnosis of aphasia, a brain condition that impacts language use and comprehension. It also follows multiple incidents in which Willis reportedly misfired a gun he was using for a film two years ago. Willis' career began in 1978 and by the late '80s he made the transition from acting in a comedic TV series to numerous action films. This move has seen him in high-intensity scenes that were not usually heavy on dialogue but did also reportedly see Willis struggle as his condition set in.

"But the first time, it was like, ‘No big deal, let’s reset." She also claims she asked director Matt Eskandari to remind Willis he needed to say his line before firing; however, the incident repeated itself. Another crew member backed this claim that Willis "did fire the gun on the wrong line." The crew member also claims "We always made sure no one was in the line of fire when he was handling guns," because even prop guns can be dangerous, as proven by the fatal accident that occurred on Rust when a gun discharged by Alec Baldwin fatally injured cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.
