US actor Robin Williams found dead, aged 63, in apparent suicide, California police say. Marin County Police said they had found Williams unresponsive after responding to an emergency call around noon local time. Williams was famous for films such as Good Morning Vietnam and Dead Poet's Society. He had been open in the past about his struggles with alcohol and drugs. He had recently returned to a rehabilitation centre to "fine-tune" his sobriety, the Los Angeles Times reported in July. "At this time, the Sheriff's Office Coroner Division suspects the death to be a suicide due to asphyxia, but a comprehensive investigation must be completed before a final determination is made," police said in a statement. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-28749702
had no idea he was having issues like that. Gave me many hours of entertainment. RIP please log in to view this image
**** that's sad. I don't usually post in these type of threads, but this is very sad. He was an incredible actor. One of the best of my generation. Only watched 'Good Will Hunting' the other day RIP
ffs. first rik now robin, what a ****e 2014! and sad loss to the entertainment and comedy they both brought. rip
Remember watching Mork and Mindy years ago before he made a name in cinema, think it was a spin off from Happy Days. If you ever get a chance to see any of his early stand up performances they are well worth it. He was manic as a stand up. My kids loved Jumanji when they were younger, I think his best film performances were Good Morning Vietnam and Good Will Hunting
Really sad news to wake up to,this guy was a genius. Countless great films,brilliant satirical stand up and an all round nice guy RIP
