Bruce Willis

From 'Die Hard' to 'Pulp Fiction', Bruce Willis has enjoyed a stellar career. However, there is one iconic film that he rejected, and he greatly regrets it.

In 1996, during an interview with The New York Times, Willis explained that he just didn’t understand the movie when he first read the script. The regret might be compounded because he also starred in one of 1990’s biggest disappointments, Brian De Palma’s The Bonfire of the Vanities. Famously, in 1990, Willis starred in one of the biggest hits of the year, Die Hard 2, but he also had the chance to be in the year’s highest-grossing film, Jerry Zucker’s fantasy romance, Ghost. If not McLane, Willis is hailed for the character of Butch Coolidge in 1994’s Pulp Fiction, a performance credited with ultimately saving his faltering career. The condition seriously affects the sufferer’s ability to communicate in both the verbal and written sense, restrictions that make the job of an actor near-impossible. Despite having a string of notable titles to his name, for Willis, there is one that got away.
