How to dynamically handle Laravel routes using variable in slug

I want to have a route entry that dynamically handles requests based on the slug in the URL. I tried the code below, but the closure seems to be getting in the way. I replaced the closure with controller actions, too, and tried other options without success. The best I came up with thus far is below:

$bladeFiles = [
    "about-us",
    "join",
    "contact",
];

foreach ($bladeFiles as $thisView) {
    Route::get($thisView, function () {
        global $thisView;
        if (View::exists($thisView)) {
            return view($thisView);
        } else {
            return redirect()->route('homepage');
        }
    })->name($thisView);
}

The issue with the above snippet is that global $thisView is always null inside the closure.

Thoughts?
