Bruce Willis — who starred in no less than eight movies in 2021 — has been given his own category at the 42nd annual Razzie Awards. “Worst Performance by Bruce Willis in a 2021 Movie” is the name of the new category, and the nominations include every single film he starred in last year, including American Siege, Apex, Cosmic Sin, Deadlock, Fortress, Midnight in the Switchgrass, Out of Death, and Survive the Game. Midnight in the Switchgrass was dead last in Vulture’s ranking of straight-to-VOD Bruce Willis films, with our reviewer commenting, “Bruce Willis is a nonessential worker here.”

Honestly I am happy we have an explanation for why his acting was so terrible in recent movies, it felt like he didn’t care but instead was just struggling.

So that begs the question why he did all of those movies last year.
Not clear if he was contracted to do the movies before his symptoms / diagnosis, or if symptoms began and he couldn’t get out of the projects, or if he was symptomatic and still wanted to continue filming for some reason.
Seems unkind to release details about his poor acting now knowing this diagnosis.

He was trying to earn as much as he could before he had to stop?

His entire entourage was earning as much as possible before they were shut down. His earpiece guy was making $200K a movie, sometimes four hours of work, never more than a day on set.

Instead of assuming malicious intent, perhaps imagine that Bruce knew his working days were numbered and HE wanted to do whatever he could to sock away cash for his big family (5 kids plus a wife who isn't likely to work) AND take care of his loyal staff.

I think that was the case.

His reputation was that of a party guy, but also an all around good guy.

Heck, he probably also realizes HE will incur a lot of expenses for longterm care at some point--and that will eat into whatever he can leave behind for his family.

It's sad, but I believe he is making good decisions based on his interest in providing for his family. I don't think anyone is taking advantage of him...not with Demi involved.

There is a difference between putting him up on boring roles as a family doctor living in the suburbs and cheating on his wife and an action role where his stunts have the potential to harm and affect others. See what just happened with Alec Baldwin and killing that cinematographer. Now think back on this incident two years ago -

In one alleged incident two years ago on a Cincinnati set of the movie “Hard Kill,” Willis unexpectedly fired a gun loaded with a blank on the wrong cue, according to two people familiar with the incident who were not authorized to comment. No one was injured. The film’s producer disputed that the incident occurred, but the alleged discharge left actors and crew members shaken.

And, if everyone was just indulging his wishes, why change course on the day an expose is coming out? The story doesn't make him look bad, it makes the family and industry look bad.

The Razzie announcement was in Feb. Perhaps they’ll walk that back now.

Bruce Willis in Moonlighting was my first celebrity crush and I still love him, but he was definitely familiar with the Razzies even when he was perfectly healthy. You can’t be that prolific and not make a bunch of duds. But when he was good it was amazing.

Same, have crushed on him since Moonlighting. I wondered if he made all of those B films recently to stockpile money for his family, knowing he’d need to retire soon due to this condition.

I think that was the deal, yes. He made a contract with a producer to give his name to a bunch of straight-to-video movies in exchange for money, and the producer was aware of his need for specific supports. Both benefitted.

Between Moonlighting residuals for syndication and the many millions he was paid for years of blockbuster movies, why the hell did he need to do that?

Because he has 5 kids with 2 different women—2 of whom are quite young, and their mother doesn’t work. Plus, he might need costly care as he ages. Smart to quickly get paid before he had to retire.

3 of his kids are adults, and his net worth is hundreds of millions. He didn't need to make any more money for himself and his family. Did you read the LA Times article? He didn't know where he was or why he was there. That goes way beyond having lines fed to him.

I’m sure he wanted to do his best to provide for his family. Let’s be real: his family is accustomed to a luxury lifestyle, and none of them are equipped to work. His youngest kids are very young, and their mother doesn’t work. They’ll be caring for him as his health declines. Their estates are massive and will require upkeep.

I’m baffled as to why anyone would blindly accept anything written in the LA Times article. It aims to paint a picture that Bruce was pimped out against his will. Do you really think his family would allow that? They appear to be a tight family. Bruce was literally living with Demi—presumably to help him. Zero chance she would pimp him out.

The LA Times article was a cruel hit piece. His family clearly rallied to break the news themselves since they were tipped off that it was coming.
