‘Moonlighting’ creator: Bruce Willis is ‘still Bruce’ despite not being ‘totally verbal’
“Moonlighting” creator Glenn Gordon Caron is still good friends with series star Bruce Willis, who’s battling the neurodegenerative disorder frontotemporal dementia.“Moonlighting” is now streaming on Hulu, shining a light on Willis, 68, who rose to stardom on the ABC series (1985-89) co-starring Cybill Shepherd.“I know he’s really happy that the show is going to be available for people, even though he can’t tell me that,” Caron, 69, told The Post of Willis, who retired from acting amid his condition. “When I got to spend time with him we talked about it and I know he’s excited.”“The process [to get ‘Moonlighting’ onto Hulu] has taken quite a while and Bruce’s disease is a progressive disease, so I was able to communicate with him, before the disease rendered him as incommunicative as he is now, about hoping to get the show back in front of people.“I know it means a lot to him.”Caron said he tries to see the “Die Hard’ actor every month or so.“I’m not always quite that good but I try and I do talk to him and his wife [Emma Heming Willis] and I have a casual relationship with his three older children,” Caron said.
