"He Didn't 100% Get It": Why Pulp Fiction's Original Butch Actor Turned The Role Down, According To Quentin Tarantino

Quentin Tarantino made some very interesting casting choices in his second movie, Pulp Fiction, but not everyone he wanted to cast agreed to sign on to his breakout film. John Travolta enjoyed his Hollywood comeback in Pulp Fiction, where he played a mafia hitman named Vincent Vega, a man who partners with Samuel L. Jackson's Jules Winnfield. However, this was a large ensemble cast, and one of the biggest stars to sign on was Bruce Willis, who played Butch, the boxer who betrayed mafia boss Marsellus Wallace.
