Very sad indeed.

Played a great bad guy.

What the ****, Alan Rickman? I didn't even know he was sick, jesus, poor sod. What a great actor he was. Rest in peace.

Always brilliant in everything he did, even bad films were immediately improved by his presence.

maudgonner

Ah no, that's bloody awful news.

Genuinely upset by this.

RIP.

Truly, Madly, Deeply is going to get a rewatch tonight. It's a proper weepie at the best of times, but will be very poignant now.

Terrible loss. Hans Gruber made Christmas for me.

razorblunt

What a fabulous actor, I would never have said he was a "favourite" actor of mine but he made every movie so much better by his presence.


"... and cancel Christmas".

He always played them a little bit camp for me to be honest, but a fine actor none the less.

RIP.

Ah I was really sad to hear that he had passed away, a great actor and a brilliant villain

First Bowie and now Rickman. Such a tough week. Better call in sick tomorrow.

And when Alexander saw the breadth of his domain, he wept, for
there were no more worlds to conquer


RIP Mr Rickman

Brilliant Actor, played some brilliant villains. Genuinely sad to hear this.

"Loxley i'm going to cut your heart out with a spoon!"

Taltos

Don't believe it....
What a loss (another one)

SimonTemplar

I remember being impressed my him during this BBC radio interview for a movie he directed and acted in. Definitely worth a listen...

"The point about a great story is that it's got a beginning, a middle and end." - Alan Rickman.

Ended a bit soon though...

dcrosskid

More sad news and another genuinely talented performer passes away.

He had an unbelievable ability to play bad guys. As much as I loved him playing Dev in Micheal Collins, his Hans Gruber in Die Hard was flawless. RIP

Noxin

First Bowie, now Rickman. 2016 sucks balls already

Into The Blue

Thought he was early 50s!! Fück this shït.

Beefy78

Jesus, I'm crushed by this, even worse than Bowie. Man.

Birneybau

Not afraid to laugh at himself, great film.

PTH2009

Rip great actor

Dev, snape, Hans grubber all great

He also voiced a king in king of the hill

Who else is going to go in 2016

twignme

Genuinely saddened by this and my thoughts go out to his wife and family who must be devastated by the loss. His Sheriff will forever be the only Sheriff of Nottingham there could ever be.

nullzero

Saw him on telly a few months ago. Seemed a genuinely nice person. Incidentally, he seemed to have an affinity with Irish theater and actors working with them regularly.

What terrible news

Pomplamousse

So sad, such a great actor. I loved his voice!
Stupid bloody cancer:( :mad:

Duggy747

Bastard cancer.

Rickman was just endlessly watchable in anything him and that voice popped up in. Played one of the best villains as Hans Gruber.

Ave Sodalis

Ah well this has just put a right dampener on things jaysus... as a massive (to the point it's probably not healthy) fan of Harry Potter, he was the perfect Snape, a great actor and seemed like a very nice person. RIP!

The_Valeyard

Not Hans Gruber / Prof Snape / De Valera!!!!


Great actor!!!

RIP

Death has been a tad busy since the start of the year!

wandatowell

Loved him in Die Hard and Dogma.

Great actor. Had a great big tint of evil about him.

valoren

He won't be joining us...for the rest of his life


RIP Alan.
