Bruce Willis Worked Through Illness With Film Techniques

Bruce Willis Worked Through Illness With Film Techniques

Bruce Willis, the famous actor from Die Hard, has been dealing with a brain illness called frontotemporal dementia.

Even though he was sick, he found ways to keep working on movies.

His wife wrote a book to share how they managed this.

To help him, directors changed how movies were made.

They gave him less lines and had a friend help him remember what to say.

The book, coming out in September, shares their story to help others going through similar situations.

Willis has been in many famous movies, like Look Who’s Talking and The Sixth Sense.
