Bruce Willis Costar Recalls Scary Gun Incident On Hard Kill Movie
Bruce Willis' costar, Lala Kent, recalls a scary incident on the set of Hard Kill involving Willis discharging a gun at the wrong time. After more than four decades of appearing in TV and movies, Willis' retirement from acting was announced yesterday due to ongoing struggles with aphasia. The medical condition affects cognition and the ability to verbally communicate, and is usually caused by a stroke, head injury, brain tumor, or a disease. The 67-year-old actor has starred in beloved hits such as the Die Hard franchise, Pulp Fiction, The Sixth Sense, and Unbreakable, and has seen an outpouring of support from actors and fans alike since the announcement.
In addition to his classic roles, Willis has kept working as of late, appearing in nearly two dozen films — typically smaller, straight-to-DVD action thrillers — in the last four years.

Although Willis is now retired from acting, he still has a handful of movies set to be released in the next year or so, including Fortress: Sniper's Eye, The Wrong Place, Die Like Lovers, Corrective Measures, Wire Room, White Elephant, and Paradise City.
