Action films…it’s something that is a challenge every time. To make it lifelike. That’s the job…I find that I can make my kids laugh and make my wife laugh much easier than I can ever get them to think…just imagine me jumping off a building. The real test is to make it seem believable.

In this science fiction action movie, Willis plays a contract killer named Joe.

Written and Directed by Rian Johnson.

I’m really pleased how well Looper turned out. And I’m really pleased for everyone involved. The actors — and especially for Rian. He knew what he wanted, got the cast he wanted, told the story he wanted and never had to compromise.
