Bruce Willis, the legendary actor known for his unforgettable roles in blockbuster films like Die Hard and Pulp Fiction, has quietly retreated from the limelight in recent years following a deeply personal and challenging diagnosis of frontotemporal dementia (FTD).
This rare and progressive neurological disorder affects the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain, leading to changes in behavior, personality, and language — challenges that have understandably made it difficult for Willis to continue his career as before.
For fans around the world, the news of his diagnosis was both heartbreaking and eye-opening, shining a light on a condition that often goes misunderstood.
