Brooklyn Nine-Nine fans demand Bruce Willis cameo in final season
Brooklyn Nine-Nine fans were shocked to receive the news that the show’s upcoming season will be its last. The show’s co-creator Dan Goor in a recent open letter confirmed that Brooklyn Nine-Nine will end after Season 8. Many B99 fans were highly upset by this and expressed the same in response to Goor’s letter.
Apart from sharing their love for the show and how they would dearly miss it, fans started demanding a specific cameo in Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s last season. This is no secret, Andy Samberg’s character NYD detective Jake Peralta is a huge fan of Bruce Willis. Especially his character from the Die-Hard franchise. On the show, he is often seen talking about the movie.
Hence, fans began demanding the co-creators of the show for making Jake’s dream come true. Back in 2019, Brooklyn Nine-Nine co-creator Dan Goor in a Reddit Q&A session said that he would love if Bruce Willis made a cameo for “obvious reasons”. In the show’s previous seasons actors like Adam Sandler, Eva Longoria, Lin Manuel Miranda, Zoey Deschanel, Kid Cudi, and Pete Davidson have all guest-starred on the show. Hence, Willis’ cameo does not seem like such a far-fetched dream. Take a look at some of the tweets here.
The only way this can end is with Bruce Willis making a small cameo in the last episode to work on a case

In his open letter, Goor said that he is thankful to NBC and Universal Television for allowing them to give these characters the ending they deserved. He added he feels incredibly lucky to have been able to work with the Brooklyn Nine-Nine cast and crew for over eight seasons. In his letter, Goor deemed the cast and crew of the show not only the “most talented people in the business” but also his “family”. Take a look at Dan Goor’s open letter here:
