We got our first glimpse of Bruce Willis as the wacky but hip David Addison in the 80's hit television show "Moonlighting." But the small screen couldn't contain his big screen-sized charm and charisma so right in front of our eyes he transformed himself into THE motion picture action hero of the last twenty years. Between big-budget performances he has sprinkled in an eclectic mix of off-beat roles and a smattering of comedy. We spotlight his many talents here in Destination Hollywood's Tribute to Bruce Willis.
Bruce Willis has an extended cameo, playing himself in Robert De Niro's Hollywood satire called What Just Happened?, directed by Barry Levinson. Here's the trailer:
Coming Soon
The Assassination of a High School President has Bruce Willis playing a crazy high school principal in this independent film starring Mischa Barton. The movie was shown at Sundance and was scheduled to be released in August 2008 but then was put on hold ... maybe until Spring of 2009. We'll keep you posted.
Bruce Willis' next project is The Surrogates, a futuristic sci-fi thriller based on a popular graphic novel series. Its 2054 and everyone has a surrogate to do all their stuff for them. Expect this one in Fall of '09.
Bruce Willis has started his own production company called Willis Brothers Films ( his brother is a partner) and will direct their first project himself. It's a film called Three Stories About Joan. Bruce will also appear in the movie.
