News broke in 2022 that Bruce Willis had retired from acting due to a neurodegenerative disorder of the central nervous system, known as aphasia. This disease disrupts speech, orientation, and cognitive abilities. Alongside this, Willis was also diagnosed with an incurable form of dementia - frontotemporal dementia.
