That's a bummer. He's one of my favorite actors. Loved him in Blade Runner as well. And he was also awesome in Omega Doom and a handful of other movies.

That entire scene and ending of him really got my attention as a kid. And honestly that music and entire soundtrack also got me into Vangelis. Really saddened with his death.

This sucks. He was awesome in Blade Runner and The Hitcher.

RIP.

He played a great Huntsman in the Ten Kingdoms. haha

I liked him in Flesh + Blood too.

And he improvised this bit: "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die."
