The actor would have had obvious difficulties on set, months before the official announcement on the diagnosis of aphasia
Following the announcement of Bruce Willis’ permanent retirement from acting due to the diagnosis of aphasia, new information emerges about the 67-year-old actor’s latest experiences on the set. Aphasia is a neurological disorder that prevents the normal understanding and creation of verbal language, which it certainly has dramatic repercussions on work during filming, as revealed in a recent article by New York Post. The announcement made by ex-wife Demi Moore has shocked fans and the entire Hollywood industry, although some worrying signs have already emerged over the past year.
The problems on the set
On one particular occasion, Willis took a big risk, as he would have fired on the set with a pistol loaded with real bullets instead of blanks, a bit like Alec Baldwin did during the filming of “Rust”. In other circumstances, the actor would have appeared confused about what to do, alarming colleagues and collaborators. The memorization of the lines created further problems, prompting the production to also suggest the use of a earwig, a device designed to suggest the lines of dialogue to the actors. Even before the official announcement, it was therefore clear that it was time for Bruce Willis to manage his health away from the cameras.
