Bruce Willis is scheduled to be in TEN movies coming out 2022, and none of them are in the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe). I’d love to know why he is making so many movies of dubious quality: bills to pay, lost a bet, trying to increase his IMDb Filmography score? Why Bruce? Why?
And it’s not like he’s working with dog meat in every movie. Among his costars are John Malkovich, John Travolta, Frank Grillo, Luke Wilson, Theo Rossi, Michael Rooker, and Mustafa Shakir.
Here are the ten movies Bruce Willis has coming to theaters this year, with a brief plot summary. See what you think:

What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

We were literally just wondering why Bruce Willis hasn’t been in a lot of movies lately, and the answer is here: he’s been saving them all up for 2022.
I guess the initial plan wasn’t really to release ten minor films in one year, but we all know how the pandemic has changed the face of cinema. Things are backed up and put off. Maybe Bruce just wants to get these movies off his schedule, do or die.
Do any of these non-blockbusters sound exciting to you? A few could be good. Hard to know — these seem like Liam Neeson-type actioners. Which is not a compliment. We like Liam at his best, but his choices sometimes seem like he wants to be a B (or C, even D) movie action star. Bruce shouldn’t follow his lead, but what do we know?
There’s still always Die Hard…
