Bruce accepted 7mm after turning down a role in ...
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
The movie version of the popular bestseller.
Bruce would have played a character who taught people the
errors of their ways while wearing a blood stained and ripped
singlet and a butterfly closure on his eyebrow using the child
psychology techniques he had begun to develop in the 6th Sense.
8ight
Bruce plays Dirk Salmond,
a criminologist hunting a serial killer who follows a murderous pattern
based on the 8 deadly sins. The killer (played by Kevin Spacey-Bacon) has
already made killings based on Gluttony, Sloth, Vanity, Covetousness, Envy,
Lechery and Wrath. The eighth victim, Procrastination, keeps receiving death
threats but the killer continues to taunt Dirk by putting the murder off.
Can Dirk solve the riddles left by the killer?
Gone in 10 Seconds
Bruce plays a Nathan McAnley, a very frustrated former psychologist struggling with his pathological desire to steal cars with Angie (played by Angelina Jolie). Angie she doesn’t like a man who is so quick and is chasing Nick (played by Nicholas Cage as John Travolta) who apparently takes 60 seconds. Nick, however, is already in a failing, but passionate, romance with Nicole (played by Kim Bassinger). Full of action and suspense as Nick and Nathan trade identities, cars, girlfriends and salaries.
The 11th Man
Bruce is Eddie Trickle, a former US soccer star sidelined by a nasty knee injury, who has taken to drinking, especially after the depart of his wife (played by Geena Davis). He is invited to coach the women’s Olympic soccer team for the 2004 Olympics if he agrees to sober up. Arriving on the first day sober, clean and well dressed. Eddie tries to show the women how to really play soccer, but they show him up and he takes to drinking again. On the eve of the Olympics he arrives to save the day and has a romance with Madonna (played by Madonna).
Of course it doesn’t have to end with 12 Monkeys – what about:
Flight 13

Can Brad and co-pilot Top "Jump-Start" Hugely (played by Charlie Sheen) and head steward Sam Nicholas (played by Leslie Neilsen) save the passengers from cannibalism when the plane goes down just outside Denver.
