Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis are among Hollywood’s action icons. No wonder Schwarzenegger is not unaffected by Willis’ film retirement, as he says in an interview.
Hollywood star Bruce Willis has influenced entire generations with his “Die Hard” films. The fact that the actor left the film business for some time because of dementia is not only depressing for his fans. Actor colleague Arnold Schwarzenegger also touched on Willis’ fate.
Bruce Willis: Action heroes don’t retire
In an interview with the film magazine “CinemaBlend” he said: “He was a huge, huge star for years. And I think he will always be remembered as a great star and a kind man.” It was understandable that Willis had retired from film due to his health problems, the 75-year-old said. Although “retirement” is not something he associates with action heroes, as Schwarzenegger continues: “In general, we never really retire. Action heroes recharge.”
Schwarzenegger and Willis have known each other for many years, including working together on the film The Expendables. Bruce Willis’ family announced in February that the Hollywood star had frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Since then it has become quiet around the 68-year-old.
