RIP Gene Hackman

[Nth]

Found dead with his wife and dog media is reporting.

 

[Ron]

Aw man. This is terrible news.

 

[B-Movie Zombie]

R.I.P.

 

[Tremas]

Just saw this. Damn.

Gene Hackman and wife found dead.
"No foul play"?

 

[B-Movie Zombie]

And dog. Saw a report saying it might be due to carbon monoxide poisoning.

 

[CB2001]

Rest in Peace, Mr. Hackman. :*(

 

[Apollo]

Another Legend gone……

 

[Bodie27]

Wow! R.I.P.

 

[batguy]

All three of them + no foul play? That's probably carbon monoxide or something.

Gene was 95 and had been retired for about 15 years. He had a great run. But his wife was only in her 60s.

The salmon mousse?


(Way too soon. Sorry.)

 

[JediMichael]

All three at the same time. Guess we'll find out eventually what happened.

 

[Moviefreak]

probably carbon monoxide or something.

That’s how I’d like to go. Fall asleep and never see it coming. Though, if this is the case it should have been preventable. We have a Co2 detector in each room.

Gene was a total legend. Such a fantastic career with so many great performances. They don't make 'em like him anymore. RIP Gene.

 

[Captain Dunsel]

I am confident that the speculation documented by the crack RPF RIP Squad will provide authorities with all the answers they may need, as to what happened…

Does this mean that there are no cast members left from Young Frankenstein?

Challenge Accepted.

Anne Beesley is still around.

Sad news indeed. He took his retirement from the movie business because of stress and heart problems. He wrote a few books, painted and fish. He loved the quiet life. Great actor, great movies. RIP Gene

95 years old. The man had a good run.

 

[enterprise0216]

He was a force and iconic on the movie screen. So many movies, but one that sticks with me was "Behind Enemy Lines" 2001 film he portrayed Admiral Leslie McMahon Reigart. Such passion and drive he delivered on screen.

New info out.

After actor Gene Hackman and his wife Betsy Arakawa were found deceased in their Santa Fe residence, authorities are now calling their deaths "suspicious."Originally the family believed the likely cause of death was a gas leak or carbon monoxide poisoning. However, a Santa Fe detective who sought a search warrant wrote in his affidavit, he believes "the death of the two deceased individuals to be suspicious enough in nature to require a thorough search and investigation."Here's some of the suspicious findings:The front door of the residence was found open and unsecured.A deceased dog was laying 10-15 feet from Betsy Arakwa in a closet of the bathroom while a healthy dog was found roaming freely on the property.There was a heater that was moved.There was also a prescription pill bottle that was opened with pills scattered next to the female.Gene Hackman's body was located in a separate room of the residence.And there were no obvious signs of a gas leak.Very strange scene unfolding in Santa Fe.
