I do get starstruck working with Bruce because even though he is such a nice guy he’s a real movie star. I grew up watching his movies it is just really hard to get used to just being around Bruce Willis. I mean, he’s Bruce Willis! Mary Elizabeth Winstead Read Quote

Not necessarily the superhero perfect archetype of what an action hero is represented as a lot of times. I would love to find that kind of action heroine role to play.
