Gene Hackman (95) and his wife Betsy Arakawa (63) found dead at their home.
No immediate foul play suspected.

RIP.

Very sad.

brandrea · 27 February 2025, 08:28 PM

That’s terrible news, she was so young ….

Great actor. Mississippi Burning was one of my favorites.

Rest in Peace to both.

Old Expat Beast · 27 February 2025, 08:31 PM

Very sad. We just re-watched FC 1&2 and The Conversation recently.

Beo3 · 27 February 2025, 08:40 PM

Very sad indeed.

A great actor, and former Marine.

His character of Popeye Doyle in the French Connection is still one of the greatest roles in NYC films.

THC · 27 February 2025, 08:53 PM

Their dog was also found dead.. so sad on all fronts

Cru Jones · 27 February 2025, 09:22 PM

A great artist. RIP to him, his wife and dog.

Great actor and always enjoyed watching his movies, I think the first movie I watched him playing was as Lex Luthor in Superman back in the days
Sad news and end for a great actor and wife.
We all end somewhere I guess they stayed and keep it together until the very end...

BLACKHORSE 6 · 27 February 2025, 10:15 PM

Very sad, and also strange. Carbon monoxide?

cop414 · 27 February 2025, 10:18 PM

Very sad, RIP to them. Yes I’d suspect carbon monoxide.

aczaja10 · 27 February 2025, 10:28 PM

Wow. I was just thinking about him in Hoosiers and the Firm. He was one of my all time favorite actors. Very sad. Legend. RIP.

cdmorenot · 27 February 2025, 10:42 PM

One of the greatest.

77T · 27 February 2025, 11:43 PM

Sad passing to rationalize for everyone in their family. Tragic just scratches the surface.

Godspeed

Gene Hackman was an unusual one in that he retired from the business at a time when he was still in demand. Not many walk away leaving money on the table like that. He was definitely one of the best of my era.

RIP to him and his wife.

1William · 28 February 2025, 12:32 AM

TNT009 · 28 February 2025, 01:36 AM

Crazy

samson66 · 28 February 2025, 01:59 AM

One of my all time favorite actors.

My initial thought was suicide

But Yeah CO poisoning seems more likely given the dog died too.

Sad day

ltmgeller · 28 February 2025, 03:05 AM

May he, his wife, and their dog rest in peace.

Jackie Daytona · 28 February 2025, 03:17 AM

Rip to him as well as his family. Great actor. Loved so much he was in.

G8RDPM · 28 February 2025, 03:27 AM

RIP
One of the best.

vitalsigns · 28 February 2025, 03:38 AM

RIP
One of the greatest actors of all time.

jatco · 28 February 2025, 03:38 AM

Just saw the very sad news of his passing. RIP all of them. So sad.
Always like Mr Hackman, thought he was a damn good actor imo.

Boothroyd · 28 February 2025, 04:52 AM

Unfortunate circumstances are becoming public, but it doesn't in any way diminish from his tremendous career. RIP.

HL65 · 28 February 2025, 04:53 AM

Terrible RIP

BNA/LION · 28 February 2025, 05:00 AM

Wow! That's so disappointing. It's something that likely could have been avoided. ~Rest In Peace~

0nly5iv3Digits · 28 February 2025, 06:01 AM

Popeye Doyle... Legend :(

Calatrava r · 28 February 2025, 07:47 AM

One of my favorite actors. I always like him best in the Poseiden Adventure.

I would agree. Sounds like carbon monoxide.

RIP

My first thought, as well. RIP! What a great actor! His movie that really stood out, to me, was “Unforgiven” Great film all around.
