He's synonymous with a lot of Tarantino's best films. Had the perfect appearance and voice for the menacing roles he was typically typecasted. Also did a lot of video game voicework. Great actor.

Madsen's death bums me out.

I still remember when he was in Free Willy and he said he got the script and was looking for the part where Willy eats the kid.

Probably being sustained by all the parasitic energy from living off other people's misery.

Underrated actor, yet so important to so many films.

He lived hard for sure. Always a cool actor no matter what. For some reason I always confused him with Tom Sizemore. That’s a ripe old age for his lifestyle. I’d take it if offered.

The last thing I saw him in was this cheesy Canadian crime reenactment show called “Real Detective”. It seemed like such a strange role to take.

Its being talked about in the EPL thread but why not here?

Diogo Jota died in a car accident at 28 years old leaving 3 children, 10 days after getting married and along with his brother.

When I read about this, I was reminded of the Gaudreau tragedy as he also died with his brother, André Silva.

He killed my mate Mike in the Fantastic Four (Mike passed away a couple of years ago of cancer himself, still miss him playing harmonica and getting drunk in the backyard)

RIP to Julian and your friend Mike... would there really be a death rattle when the center of your chest has been blown out like that?

Just reading the Reddit thread on this. Someone posted that the report said he died during the jump and not from the actual impact?

I also didn't realize that he had such controversial and outspoken political views.

yeah, he was ... well, let's stick to "controversial". Not necessarily a popular guy around here.

apparently had a medical episode while paragliding and crashed into a hotel pool. What a way to go.
