Bruce Willis

Bruce Willis, actor and musician, is famous for his witty and sharp-edged role in action films. He has appeared in more than $2.5 billion in films. Walter Bruce Willis was born March 19, 1955 in Idar-Oberstein (West Germany) to Marlene Kassel and David Andrew Willis (from Carneys Point New Jersey), both of whom lived on the United States military base. His family moved to America soon after the birth of his son. He grew up in Penns Grove (New Jersey) where his mother worked as an employee at a bank, while his father worked as an electrician and in the factory. Willis picked up an interest in drama during high school. He was "discovered" when he was working at a café in New York City and then participated in a couple of off-Broadway productions. As a bartender one night the bartender was noticed by an acting director who liked his persona and was in need of bartenders for a minor movie part. Willis was part of countless auditions before landing the role in the popular romantic comedy, Moonlighting (1985), as David Addison. His humorous and wisecracking P.I. His humor-filled and wisecracking P.I. is frequently viewed as a test to test his character John McClane, the hardboiled NYC detective in Die Hard (1988), which saw Willis battle a gang ruthless international thieves in an Los Angeles skyscraper. In Die Hard 2 (1990) He reprised the role. The group of rebellious Special Forces soldiers is trying to restore a corrupt South American general. They are set in Washington's Dulles International Airport. The film's stellar box-office results led to an sequel to Die Hard with the same vengeance (1995). This time Samuel L. Jackson starred as a cynical Harlem shop owner, who was not aware of the fact that he was required to help McClane during a terror attack on a scorching New York City day.
