Bruce Willis’ co-star Tom Cavanagh says it was a ‘privilege’ working with the actor in one of his final roles
Tom Cavanagh is starring in "the Bruce Willis movie," and he couldn’t be more thankful.

The 67-year-old is taking on the role of Julius "The Lobe" Loeb, a notorious inmate at San Tiburon, the world’s most dangerous maximum-security penitentiary. It’s home to monsters, treacherous criminals, supervillains and cyborgs,

"This is a privilege," Cavanagh told Fox News Digital about working with Willis in one of his final roles. In March, Willis’ family announced the star was stepping away from acting after a diagnosis of aphasia, a condition that causes loss of the ability to understand or express speech.
