Bill Murray is fondly remembering Bruce Willis’ humble beginnings.

The “Saturday Night Live” alum appeared on “Watch What Happens Live” Monday where he recalled the “Die Hard” star working behind the scenes on the NBC sketch comedy series before getting his break in Hollywood.

“Bruce Willis was a page at NBC when I was on ‘Saturday Night Live.’ This sounds like insane s–t, [but] his job was to come and go to the dressing rooms and refill the M&Ms and pretzels in the actors’ rooms,” Murray explained.

According to Murray, the experience on “SNL” left a lasting impression on Willis long after leaving the NBCUniversal page program, which offers development opportunities to young talent starting off in their careers.

“I remember when I met him after he was already a successful guy, he said you and Gilda [Radner] were nice to me,” the “Ghostbusters” star told host Andy Cohen and Naomi Watts on Monday’s episode.

Willis would go on to host “SNL” in 1989 and 2013.

Meanwhile, Murray, 74, and Willis, 70, eventually starred together on the 2012 film “Moonrise Kingdom.”

“‘Moonrise Kingdom’ was a really beautiful, lovely film. And I got to work with and have a wonderful time with [him],” the comedian gushed, appearing visibly emotional.

“Bruce Willis is a good guy, a good f–king guy. He was a good friend.”

Murray’s kind words for Willis came nearly two weeks after the “Sixth Sense” star celebrated his 70th birthday on March 19.

The A-lister’s eldest daughter, Rumer Willis, shared on update on his well-being following his diagnoses with aphasia and frontotemporal dementia, which can affect speech and behavior. (Bruce retired from acting in 2022 amid his health battles.)

“Please wish my papa a big, happy birthday,” she said one day before the milestone occasion, adding that he was “doing great.”

Bruce’s daughter Talluleh Willis also celebrated her dad with a heartfelt message shared on Instagram.

“happy 70th to my favorite friend! you are a light that can never be dimmed! I love you so proud to be your baby Tallulah Belle Bruce Willis,” she wrote.

The Emmy winner shares three daughters — Rumer, Talluleh and Scout Willis — with his ex-wife, Demi Moore, whom he was married to from 1987 to 2000.

He and his current wife, Emma Heming, also share two daughters: Mabel, 12, and Evelyn, 10.

The model marked their 16th wedding anniversary on March 21, writing via Instagram, “We’ve shared monumental highs and devastating lows, and through it all, we’ve built something timeless.

“I’m so deeply grateful for every chapter I’ve had with him and all the ones we’ll continue to write, in our language of unconditional love.”
