[KT34]

Gene Hackman and his wife were found dead in their home. Cause of death not known yet but no evidence of foul play.

 

[HymanKaplan]

One of his best scenes.

"A member? (chuckle), a member of WHAT..." LOL

 

[warrior-cat]

One of my favorite actors between him and Harrison Ford. RIP Colonel Rhodes.

What a coincidence his wife died at the same time.

 

[ukalumni00]

Wife and dog died to. Very likely carbon monoxide poisoning.

 

[BC_Wader]

What a coincidence his wife died at the same time.

And their dog. Sounds like carbon monoxide poisoning.

 

[BC_Wader]

He played a good role in Crimson Tide. Loved that movie.

Gene Hackman passed away. What was your favorite line of his in Hoosiers?

Mine was when he tells Jimmy Chitwood "I don't care if you play on the team or not."

 

[the nail at the foul line]

"I apologize for nothing!"

 

[LineSkiCat14]

Yeah this is crazy. Him, wife and the dog all dead. I guess CO2 poisoning.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

Second oldest actor from Danville, Illinois alive until yesterday. Not sure who taught drama at that high school but damn.

Dick Van Dyke is other.

Danville is a Paducah sized town.

“I love you guys”

I cry every time

Apparently both he and his wife and his dog were all found dead? Sad

One of my all time fav actors, so many good movies . The French Connection is probably my fav old school cop movie ever.

[WildcatFan1982]

If he died in his sleep that would imply he was unarmed

We’ll ain’t death a cowardly son of a bitch

"I apologize for nothing!"

Wife and dog died to. Very likely carbon monoxide poisoning.

I would probably say that's a very likely possibility.

Little known fact, real name was Stanley Hacksaw. He was the original inventor...look it up.

 

[FirewithFire]

He played a great role in unforgiven. In fact he played a great role in about everything he was in.

 

[Fox2monk]

Awesome actor and some legendary performances. Lex Luthor was one of my favorites as a kid.

Wife and dog died to. Very likely carbon monoxide poisoning.

With no foul play suspected sounds reasonable to me.

[Col. Angus]

I bet an assassin got all of em

 

[Cawood86]

Great actor, but it never felt like he was acting. One of my personal favorites.

French Connection
Hoosiers
Mississippi Burning
Unforgiven
The Firm

And so many more

 

[FurdTerguson]

One no one has mentioned yet....No Way Out as David Brice.

 

[Catman100]

This one hurts. An absolute legend of an actor.

Bite the Bullet was one of the first movies I remember noticing him in.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

I bet Vaccine got all of em
