Bruce Willis’ Action Currency Still Valuable

By
April 30, 2009

Aging can be a difficult thing, particularly for a movie star.  And for an action movie star, it generally means career death.  But Bruce Willis, the now 54-year old star of the “Die Hard” films has strangely neither made the jump into politics nor ended up on “Where Are They Now?”

The newly remarried megastar is attached to three upcoming indie thrillers: The CIA spy film, “Red,” mob biopic “Scarpa,” and a detective thriller called “Inventory.”

But even before he confirms or denies his involvement in these highly anticipated films, Willis has a slew of other action roles lined up likely to be shot first including the action-comedy with a working title of “A Couple of Dicks,” Lionsgate’s adaptation of the video game, “Kane & Lynch,” and the Disney sci-fi flick, “Surrogates.”
