Bruce Willis is said to be worth over $200 million so even if he was healthy, it wasn't like he in theory, needed to work so hard if he didn't have to.

He could've retired sooner and put a trust fund for 20 million for his 5 kids and still have 100 million left over.
THAT ISN'T HOW IT WORKS...WORTH EQUATES TO ALL VALUE...HOUSES,LAND,CARS,ART,STOCKS,ETC ETC...HOW MUCH ACTUAL LIQUID CASH HE HAS ON HAND IS A WHOLE DIFFERENT MATTER.
THROW ON THE LEGACY ANGLE...WHY HE MANAGED TO PILE UP THE SHIT SHOWS THE LAST FEW YEARS...I AM SURE THE ORIGINAL THOUGHT WAS BANK A BUNCH OF FILMS,A FEW OF WHICH WOULD TURN OUT OKAY...THUS HIS LEGACY CONTINUES INTO THE 2020'S...WELL...IT WORKED...JUST NOT THE WAY HE HAD ENVISIONED,I'M SURE.
The chance to earn quick money (probably around 2m for a day or two on each of the stdvd 'films') knowing that soon he wouldn't be able to act anymore (was probably diagnosed around the time he started doing them in 2014 or thereabout), no health/safety/insurance stuff that could prevent him working that would be an issue on proper productions (Glass was also abit of an independent type film that was funded by friend MNS, didnt require too much screen time/hooded figure etc) also probably pressured to keep doing it by family (wife, daughters) until he literally couldn't do it anymore.
shareWell, he either loved movies and wanted to make as many as possible while he still could, and get paid as much as possible doing it. Or his family is monsters and were making him do it to milk the last milk from the golden teet. But they're saddled with taking care of him now. It is what it is.
