Bruce Willis 'misfired guns on Hard Kill movie set in 2020 and asked crew what he was doing during the production of the film White Elephant in 2021': Directors were forced to reduce his roles due to 'heartbreaking' battle with aphasia

• The action hero, 67, has reportedly shown signs of cognitive decline for years
• Lala Kent played his daughter in Hard Kill and says he fired a gun on the wrong cue twice, leaving her unable to duck in time
• No one was injured, and the film's producer and armorer say it never happened
• The actor's lines were also unexpectedly cut during the filming of Out of Death
• The director said his words had to be 'abbreviated' and kept 'short and sweet'
• On Wednesday, Willis' family announced he would be retiring from acting after he was diagnosed with aphasia, a brain condition that affects speech

Wasn't Bruce Willis once a stunt man? He must have been knocked about quite a bit over the years, in the Die Hard films for example.

So maybe it's simply progressive brain damage, as might have happened had he been a boxer or rugby player.

It's enough to make you weep, it really is.

But it explains all those dire straight to dvd movies he's made, and there's a shedload more to come.
