Why is he doing straight-to-dvd movies all the sudden

It's not like he's really canceled anymore as he already made a comeback with Hacksaw Ridge and was also in Daddy's Home 2. Now a lot of his recent movies (Panama, Hot Seat, Agent Game, Force of Nature etc) have all been straight-to-VOD movies where some of his roles are just minor. Why is he going the Willis route all the sudden?
