Bruce Willis Exploring the Stage?
By: BWW News Desk
According to World Entertainment News Network, movie star Bruce Willis has expressed an interest in flexing his acting muscles--on the stage.
"I've done more than 70 films and four years of TV, so I'm driven more by the story now...I'd like to do some theatre if I get the time. I would love to do something American like a Sam Shepard play," stated the actor. "I do films but they come out a year after you've filmed them. By the time they come out, I'm so disconnected from the movie...But theatre is more immediate and you know straight away if you are entertaining the audience or not."Willis started out in theatre and appeared as a replacement "Eddie" in the original Off-Broadway cast of Fool for Love. His many film credits include Sin City, Bandits, Unbreakable, The Whole Nine Yards, The Sixth Sense, Armageddon, Pulp Fiction and the Die Hard movies (he is currently at work on a fourth). Willis is also known for his work on "Moonlighting."
