Just read that he and his wife were both found dead in their NM home.

There are a lot of old actors living here. Hell, there are just a lot of old actors period.

Another story said the dog was dead too. Sounds like CO poisoning.

The last public spotting of Gene Hackman dressed out in a baseball cap, vest, and flannel shirt filmed outside a store in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Looking pretty spry for 90’s. Some back problems but he still has a jaunty step. He’d still whoop that photographers ass if he wanted.

He played many great roles.

Sad news. Even sadder if it was monoxide poisoning issue.

I watched that just last week and had been looking for Bat 21 online for free.

Sounds like Carbon Monoxide poisoning to me. Love Hackman, I first remember him as Lex Luther when I was young.

 

[Colquhoun]

And he was in David Mamet's film Heist in 2001.
Great film.

Authorities in Santa Fe are now labeling the deaths of Gene Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, as suspicious.

There is no evidence of carbon monoxide poisoning. https://t.co/XiTadm2LkR

RIP. Jimmy McGinty was anything but a conventional guy...

Such sad news. I've heard it said he was one of the nicest guys in Hollywood.

I saw a profile of him a few years ago. I recall him saying that when he gets up in the morning and looks in the mirror he thinks, "I'm the luckiest guy in the world."
