Bruce Willis is set to be roasted this summer, and one of his former costars will fire up the grill.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt has signed on as Roast Master for The Comedy Central Roast of Bruce Willis. Gordon-Levitt broke the news via Twitter on Thursday, tweeting:

Willis and Levitt starred together in 2012’s Looper, as well as 2014’s Sin City: A Dame to Kill For.

Willis, who broke big in the mid-’80s on Moonlighting, went on to headline the Die Hard franchise, as well as star in Pulp Fiction, 12 Monkeys, The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable, and Moonrise Kingdom. “This ain’t the first time I’ll be tied to a chair and held hostage by a group of humorless a–holes for a couple hours,” the actor said in a statement this spring.

The Willis roast is slated to air later this summer. Comedy Central’s previous roast, which aired in 2016, mocked Rob Lowe. Past roastees include Justin Bieber, Charlie Sheen, Roseanne Barr, and Donald Trump.
