Bruce Willis might become an American Assassin

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Bruce Willis is your go to guy if you need a cop or military personnel, or basically just an intimidating hard ass.

The actor is currently in negotiations to star in CBS Films’ AMERICAN ASSASSIN. The story centers on, “Mitch Rapp, a former Syracuse grad student who joins the CIA after his girlfriend his killed by a terrorist attack. Willis will play a CIA operative who serves as a mentor to Rapp.”

This is a role that Willis has been circling for quite some time now. Now that he’s finally decided to join, the studio will now be looking for someone to take on the part of young assassin, Rapp. Willis must show him the way.

You can see Willis next in LOOPER alongside Joseph Gordon-Levitt. We also just posted Chris Bumbray’s review from TIFF, so go check it out.

AMERICAN ASSASSIN is set to start production in the fall of 2013.
