Oscar-winning actor WilliamHurt, known for his work on films like Body Heat, Broadcast News, Black Widow, and more, has died at the age of 71.
Oscar-winning actor William Hurt has passed away at age 71. Hurt was a prolific actor, having starred in a long string of well-known films since the early 80s, including Altered States, Body Heat, and The Big Chill, before winning an Oscar for his performance in Kiss of the Spider Woman in 1985.
Hurt worked steadily throughout the 90s and 2000s, playing John Robinson in 1998s Lost in Space and featuring in the cult sci-fi film Dark City. The actor played Duke Atreides in the Sci-Fi channel mini-series adaptation of Dune. He appeared in Steven Spielberg's A.I. Artificial Intelligence in 2001, before starring in his first comic-book role, playing Richie Cusack in David Cronenberg's A History of Violence.
It is with great sadness that the Hurt family mourns the passing of William Hurt, beloved father and Oscar winning actor, on March 13, 2022, one week before his 72nd birthday. He died peacefully, among family, of natural causes. The family requests privacy at this time. In Hurt's later years, he appeared in a number of film and TV projects, showing up in quite a few shows, including Damages, Humans, Beowulf: Return to the Shieldlands, Condor, and Goliath. His last feature film was The King's Daughter with Pierce Brosnan and Kaya Scodelario. Despite his terminal condition, Hurt continued to act all the way up to his death, with multiple projects still lined up, including voice work on the animated series Pantheon and a number of feature projects.
Hurt's loss is a tragic one, but he leaves behind a tremendous legacy of work in his wake, which is something that will live on beyond his passing. Older audiences will remember him for his earlier performances, while newer viewers will no doubt recall his time spent in the MCU as Thaddeus Ross. Either way, Hurt's work will last for generations to come, as his films are revisited and appreciated, remembering his unique presence and what it meant to Hollywood during his tenure.
