My friend just told me he passed - too damn young. Absolutely wild.

Caught me by complete surprise. I enjoyed his work in the Wire, Fringe, and Horizon Zero Dawn. Even in the terrible resident evil show, he worked well with what he had.

60 years old man. Online articles are saying it was natural causes.

Fuck. At 60.

Man, that sucks. Great character actor that improved any show/movie he was in. That voice is hall of fame up there with Keith David for "voices of authority".

Great in the Wire. Great in John Wick. Will be sadly missed. :(

Dude was in great health, WTF.
can't see YouTube but I hope Terry linked Eric Andre.
This is what happens from here on in, people who seem fine just drop dead. It's nothing to do with lifestyle at this point, just the unlucky fuckers who never had old age in their life plan.

Check out Bosch on Amazon. He plays a similar character to The Wire. Jamie Hector (Marlo) and a few other Wire actors are also in it.

I guess Black and Decker would have been more controversial

Yeah, Lt Daniels for me. Damn I can’t believe he died at 60. That’s barely old age these days.

Evidently people were paying respect to his character in game.

I think that was kind of sweet in a way.

He was an awesome actor.

Unfortunately, some people are just a ticking time bomb. No matter how well they take care of themselves, there are certain heart defects and clotting factors that are just death sentences these days. Hopefully less so in the future.

Why you should never take "tomorrow" for granted. Don't deny yourself pleasure to try and extend your life a couple of extra shitty years at the end, don't waste time in awful relationships, don't put off things that are important to you.

No regerts.

I loved him in Lost and his appearance on Eric Andre was legendary.

RIP

Our "friends" at Pfizer haven't helped in this regard. I have a buddy who had a heart attack shortly after getting his second dose. His cardiologist told him this likely was not coincidence, and now we know Pfizer was aware of the link to myocarditis over a year ago at the latest. He eventually had to have a cardiac ablation, but the procedure failed the first time due to a clot shortly after a booster. The kicker? The anti-arrythmia medicine he had to take in the interim was also made by Pfizer.
