Bruce Willis is the definition of a go-to action star. In the 80s and 90s, along with the likes of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Sylvester Stallone, Willis was a star whose movies changed the course of Hollywood in a major way.
Earlier this month, movie fans around the world were shocked to hear the news in which the iconic actor announced that he would be retiring. Willis, who is 67, has been diagnosed with aphasia, a brain condition that impedes a person's ability to speak and write. Willis' family recently gave a statement that his retirement was confirmed.
"Bruce has been experiencing some health issues and has recently been diagnosed with aphasia, which is impacting his cognitive abilities. As a result of this and with much consideration, Bruce is stepping away from the career that has meant so much to him."
