0:00A four-time Oscar nominee, a favorite
of director Stanley Kubrick, and
0:05multiple mobsters. Let's take a closer look into
the lives of the stars we've lost so far in 2022.
0:12Iconic singer and actor Meat Loaf, who won a
Grammy for his hit ballad "I'd Do Anything For
0:17Love (But I Won't Do That)" and appeared in films
like "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" and "Fight
0:22Club," died in January 2022. His manager
confirmed the news to The New York Times,
0:27but did not immediately reveal
the cause of death. He was 74.
0:31Born Marvin Lee Aday, the Dallas native
adopted his childhood nickname as a stage name
0:36early in his career. He got his big break when
he auditioned for the off-Broadway musical
0:41"More Than You Deserve" in the early '70s. He
won a role and formed a lifelong partnership
0:46with writer Jim Steinman, who would go on to pen
Meat Loaf's debut album, 1977's "Bat Out of Hell."
0:53Todd Rundgren produced the record, and everyone
from the New York Philharmonic to members of the
0:58E Street Band contributed. It was an unlikely
hit that critics begrudgingly praised, though
1:04Meat Loaf would struggle to replicate its success
in the years that followed. After a few flops,
1:09he dropped 1993's "Bat Out of Hell II: Back Into
Hell," which included his Grammy-winning single.
1:15In terms of films, Meat Loaf is best
known for playing Eddie the delivery boy
1:19in 1975's "The Rocky Horror Picture
Show" and former bodybuilder Bob
1:24Paulson in 1999's "Fight Club." Other notable
credits include 1992's "Wayne's World,"
1:302001's "The 51st State," and "Ghost Wars,"
on which he recurred between 2017 and 2018.
1:38Comedian and actor Bob Saget, best known
for his long stint on the sitcom "Full
1:42House," died in January 2022 in his hotel room.
There was no evidence of drug use or foul play,
1:49according to Chief Medical Examiner
Joshua Stephany. He was 65. His wife,
1:53Kelly Rizzo Saget, said in
a statement, per Variety,
1:56"I am so completely shattered and in disbelief."
2:00Saget made his TV debut as Bob the Comic
in a 1981 episode of the Tom Hanks sitcom
2:05"Bosom Buddies." In 1987, he won the
part of Danny Tanner on "Full House,"
2:10which became a career-defining role. Saget played
the widowed father of three from 1987 to 1995,
2:17and reprised the role in the Netflix-produced
sequel series, "Fuller House."
2:21"Well just remember, when children seem the
least lovable, means they need love the most."
2:27It was often hectic on set, but Saget
had fond memories of working with his
2:31onscreen kids. The actor told Vanity Fair in 2014,
2:35"Jodie Sweetin was four when she started,
Ashley and Mary-Kate were nine months,
2:39Candace was nine — you're talking about
exceptionally talented young kids."
2:44Elsewhere, Saget was known as the voice of
the older Ted Mosby on "How I Met Your Mother"
2:48and as the host of "America's Funniest Home
Videos," which he fronted for almost a decade.
2:54French actor Gaspard Ulliel was best known
to international audiences for his turn
2:59as the young Hannibal Lecter. Sadly, he
died due to a skiing accident in January
3:042022, as reported by Deadline. He was 37.
3:08Ulliel began his career on French
television in the late 1990s,
3:12and was landing film roles by the early
2000s. His big break arrived in 2004,
3:17when he landed the part of Manech in "A
Very Long Engagement." Ulliel won his
3:22first Cesar award for this movie and would
make the transition to Hollywood soon after,
3:26playing the titular killer in the 2007 prequel
film "Hannibal Rising." It was one of his biggest
3:32roles at the time of his death. But the actor was
also about to make his debut as a Marvel villain.
3:38Sadly, Ulliel died a few months before Marvel's
"Moon Knight" dropped. He plays Anton Mogart, aka
3:44Midnight Man, a black market antiquities dealer
who goes head to head with the titular hero.
3:50Emmy winner Louie Anderson, who appeared
in films like "Ferris Bueller's Day
3:53Off" and "Coming to America," died of
complications from cancer in January 2022,
3:59his publicist confirmed to CNN. He was 68.
Tributes from across the entertainment world
4:04poured in after the news broke. Screenwriter
Carl Kurlander wrote in a Deadline tribute piece,
4:10"I was one of the lucky ones who got
to call Louie a friend. He made me
4:14and others in his orbit feel like family."
4:16Anderson decided to give stand-up a go after
his colleagues dared him to go on stage.
4:21The audience loved him, and it wasn't long before
he was making his mark in the comedy world.
4:26Anderson's talent and career were multifaceted.
4:29He was as comfortable in front of a crowd
as he was fronting game shows. Indeed,
4:33he would become a fixture on American TV screens
as the host of "Family Feud" from 1999 to 2002.
4:39Anderson plied his trade on shows like "Grace
Under Fire," "Touched by an Angel," "Chicago
4:44Hope," and "Scrubs," but some of his best
work came in the twilight of his career.
4:49Anderson was nominated for Emmys three
years running for his performance on the
4:52Zach Galifianakis-led FX comedy
"Baskets," winning in 2016.
4:58"Oh, presents! Unnecessary."
5:03Hollywood legend Sidney Poitier, widely seen as
the first Black movie star, died in January 2022
5:09at the age of 94, as confirmed by The New
York Times. Barack Obama said in a tweet,
5:15"Through his groundbreaking roles
and singular talent, Sidney Poitier
5:19epitomized dignity and grace, revealing the
power of movies to bring us closer together."
5:24Denzel Washington said of him
in an interview with People,
5:27"He was a gentle man and opened doors for
all of us that had been closed for years."
5:32Poitier earned his first credited film role,
Dr. Luther Brooks, in 1950's "No Way Out."
5:38He actively avoided demeaning roles, and by the
end of the decade, his persistence began paying
5:43off. He became the first Black man to be nominated
for the Academy Award for Best Actor in 1959,
5:49blowing critics away with his turn as an
escaped prisoner in "The Defiant Ones."
5:54He missed out on that occasion, but would
make history a few years later when he became
5:58the first Black man to win that award for his
performance as an traveling laborer in 1963's
6:04"Lilies of the Field." How did
Poitier feel about opening so
6:07many doors for Black actors and artists
everywhere? He once told Oprah Winfrey,
6:12"It's been an enormous responsibility.
And I accepted it, and I lived in a
6:16way that showed how I respected
that responsibility. I had to."
6:20Up-and-coming actor Moses J. Moseley was
found dead in Georgia in January 2022.
6:25His agent, Tabatha Minchew,
told The Hollywood Reporter,
6:29"Moses was a very talented person, with a
bright light around him. He will be missed
6:34deeply by his friends, family and fans.
Always a ball of happy energy around him."
6:40The cause of death was not immediately revealed
by authorities, who launched an investigation
6:44to determine the circumstances. He
was 31. A native of South Carolina,
6:49Moseley studied at Georgia State
University before settling down in Atlanta.
6:54According to The Hollywood Reporter, he worked
as a model before transitioning into acting.
6:58Moseley's first credited role was playing
Michonne's pet walker Mike on "The Walking
7:03Dead" in 2012. He would appear on the hit AMC
show half a dozen times over the next few years.
7:09Moseley went on to play Tic Toc on
USA Network's "Queen of the South,"
7:13an usher on HBO's critically-acclaimed
"Watchmen" series, and Kadeem on Irv Gotti's
7:18"Tales." His most notable feature film
was 2017's "Attack of the Southern Fried
7:23Zombies," in which he played Robbie. Moseley
had several projects in various stages of
7:28production when he was reported missing by his
family, including "Hank" and "Cadillac Respect."
7:34Academy Award winner William Hurt — who owned
the '80s with hits like "The Big Chill" and
7:39"Gorky Park" — died in March 2022. The
actor was 71 years old, and as his son,
7:45Will, said in a statement via Variety,
7:47"He died peacefully, among
family, of natural causes."
7:50Although not initially publicly confirmed, we
now know that Hurt died from complications of
7:55prostate cancer; he was first diagnosed in 2018.
Born in Washington, D.C., Hurt studied theology
8:04at Tufts before finding his passion in acting.
The actor made his debut film performance with
8:10"Altered States," a psychedelic trip that mixes
mushrooms, religious imagery, and body horror.
8:15He followed that up with the sexy noir flick "Body
Heat" — the film that propelled him to stardom.
8:20After that, Hurt won a Best Actor Oscar for
his portrayal of gay prisoner Luis Molina in
8:26"Kiss of the Spider Woman." It was just the
first of four times he'd be up for an Oscar,
8:31with the Academy nominating his work for
"Children of a Lesser God," "Broadcast
8:35News," and "A History of Violence." Fans will also
recognize Hurt from projects like "The Village"
8:40and "A.I. Artificial Intelligence." Of course,
the man also left his stamp on the superhero genre
8:46by playing Thaddeus Ross, the MCU antagonist
who pursued Bruce Banner and Natasha Romanoff.
8:53Estelle Harris came to fame as
an actor well into adulthood,
8:56most familiar to TV audiences as
Estelle Costanza, the combative,
9:01shrill-voiced mother of George Costanza on
the mega-popular '90s sitcom "Seinfeld."
9:06"Oh, I can't believe it. Frank, come here!."
9:10Harris appeared in nearly 30 episodes of
the series. She also used that distinctive
9:14angry voice in a number of other projects
post-"Seinfeld," including the "Toy Story"
9:19movies, as Mrs. Potato Head, "Brother
Bear," "Teacher's Pet," and "Futurama."
9:23But Harris was much more than an argumentative,
uniquely voiced maternal figure. She had more
9:28than 100 acting credits to her name, all
of them coming in her late 40s and beyond.
9:34Harris started her acting career in
community theater, regional theater,
9:38and summer stock before segueing into
TV with appearances in commercials.
9:42According to CNN, she once appeared in
25 nationally broadcast ads in one year.
9:48According to a statement from Harris'
son, Glen, via agent Michael Eisenstadt,
9:52Estelle Harris died on April 2, 2022. A cause
of death was not provided; the actor was 93.
10:00Never a leading man and almost always a supporting
character in broad comedies and family movies,
10:05Gilbert Gottfried became a household name
because of his public and on-screen persona.
10:10It's hard not to forget that perpetually irate,
10:13squinting malcontent screaming his thoughts in
a shrill, scratchy, overblown New York accent.
10:19"I can't believe it! I just don't believe it!"
10:23After a major breakthrough as a member of the
cast of "Saturday Night Live" in the early 1980s,
10:28Gottfried became a fixture in '80s and '90s
movies, oft-rerun cultural touchstones for kids
10:34and teens who grew up in that era. He played
Sidney Bernstein in "Beverly Hills Cop II,"
10:39Mr. Peabody in all three "Problem
Child" movies, and voiced Iago
10:43in "Aladdin." He also voiced the Aflac duck in
a long-running series of insurance commercials.
10:49That's to say nothing of his dozens of
other appearances in TV shows and movies,
10:54making use of his purposely annoying all-purpose
characterization. Gottfried was also a
10:59relentlessly performing stand-up comedian and a
dark and twisted one favored by other knock-around
11:04comics, as evidenced by his appearances on
Comedy Central's series of celebrity roasts.
11:10On April 12, 2022, Gottfried's Twitter account
broke the news that the actor and comedian
11:15had died following an unspecified
"long illness." Gottfried was 67.
11:21Mike Hagerty was among the most prolific and
recognizable character actors of the last 40
11:26years, popping up in more than 100 movies
and TV shows. He usually played a gruff,
11:31blue-collar, working man type with a big
mustache and pronounced Chicagoan accent.
11:36Among Hagerty's most familiar roles, there's
Davey, a cable TV station employee in "Wayne's
11:41World" and apartment building superintendent
Mr. Treeger on "Friends," who becomes Joey's
11:46ballroom dance partner. He also played
best friend of the main character in the
11:50original "Overboard," an auto shop owner
on "Lucky Louie," and a main cast role
11:56on "The George Carlin Show." Hagerty recently
played a captain on multiple episodes of
12:00"Brooklyn Nine-Nine," appeared on "Shameless," and
played farmer Ed Miller on "Somebody Somewhere."
12:06On her Instagram page, "Somebody Somewhere"
star Bridget Everett reported that Hagerty had
12:10died on May 5, 2022, in Los Angeles. A cause
of death was later revealed to be a seizure
12:16as a result of an adverse reaction
to antibiotics. He was 67 years old.
12:22One of the finest and most
recognizable actors of his era,
12:26Ray Liotta alternated between rugged leading
man roles and quirky character actor parts,
12:31usually playing tough guys,
criminals, and intimidating figures,
12:34as well as frequently sending up his public
image as a man of simmering, unhinged intensity.
12:40"Who you think we're talking to?"
12:42Liotta was a prolific actor, appearing in more
than 100 movies and TV shows since the 1980s.
12:48He broke out in a big way with back-to-back
roles as the ghost of Shoeless Joe Jackson
12:53in 1989's "Field of Dreams" and real-life
Mafia big shot Henry Hill in "Goodfellas,"
12:58Martin Scorsese's classic crime epic that
would earn six Oscar nominations. That film
13:04solidified Liotta's specialty of playing men
just barely on one side of the law or the other,
13:09similar to his performances in "Something
Wild," "Cop Land," "Unlawful Entry,"
13:14"Narc," "Observe and Report," "Shades of
Blues," and "The Many Saints of Newark."
13:18According to Deadline, Liotta was in
the Dominican Republic in May 2022
13:23filming the movie "Dangerous Waters,"
when he died in his sleep. He was 67.
13:28In a career spanning more than 200 roles back
to the early 1970s, Philip Baker Hall became a
13:34quintessential character actor. He's probably
best known to audiences as Lt. Joe Bookman,
13:40a "library cop" tenaciously investigating
Jerry Seinfeld for a decades-overdue book
13:45on the comedian's titular show. You'll also
likely recognize him as the intimidating but
13:50secretly sweet neighbor Walt on "Modern
Family," Doctor Morrison on "Curb Your
13:54Enthusiasm," and hippo game show host
Hank Hippopopalous on "BoJack Horseman."
14:00Writer-director Paul Thomas Anderson also
cast Hall in prominent roles in his first
14:04three features — "Hard Eight,"
"Boogie Nights," and "Magnolia."
14:08According to Hall's daughter,
via The Hollywood Reporter,
14:10the actor died at home in Glendale, California,
on June 12, 2022. Hall was 90 years old.
14:17A chameleonic and frequently employed
character actor, Joe Turkel racked up
14:22a whopping 142 credits over a career that
spanned from the late 1940s to the 1990s.
14:29Of course, he's most closely associated with
the films of Stanley Kubrick, who cast the
14:33actor in three films. Turkel starred in "The
Killing" and "Paths of Glory," but he's most
14:38famous for his appearance in "The Shining," where
he played the creepy ghost hotel bartender Lloyd.
14:44Turkel was virtually retired by the
1980s, when Ridley Scott hired him
14:48to play replicant maker Dr. Eldon Tyrell
in the 1982 sci-fi classic "Blade Runner."
14:54Other than those major film works, Turkel was
a constant presence over decades of television,
14:59with one-shot roles on dozens of memorable
shows, including "Miami Vice," "Fantasy
15:04Island," "Kojak," "The Andy Griffith
Show," "Bonanza," "Ironside," and "Combat!"
15:09According to Variety, Turkel
died in a Santa Monica,
15:11California, hospital on June 27, 2022. He was 94.
15:16One of the best and most definitive actors
of his generation, James Caan starred in
15:21some of the most highly regarded films
of the latter half of the 20th century.
15:25Usually playing tough guys,
criminals, intimidating dudes,
15:28macho men, and inscrutable patriarchs, Caan paid
his dues on 1960s TV dramas like "Naked City,"
15:35"The Untouchables," and "Wagon Train." Moving into
different roles in the early 1970s, Caan starred
15:41as the title character in the adaptation
of John Updike's "Rabbit Run" and played
15:45real-life football player Brian Piccolo in the
acclaimed made-for-TV tearjerker "Brian's Song."
15:50"Aye-yuh, sounds like a ball."
15:52He found probably his most iconic role
ever as Sonny Corleone in "The Godfather,"
15:58for which he received an Oscar
nomination. Later in his career,
16:02Caan would land memorable starring roles
in "Alien Nation," "Misery," "Honeymoon in
16:06Vegas," and "Elf," and join the frothy NBC
drama "Las Vegas." Sadly, on July 7, 2022,
16:13Caan's family announced on Twitter that the
actor died the previous evening. He was 82.
16:19Tony Sirico found the role of his life as
Peter Paul Gualtieri, aka Paulie Walnuts,
16:24on HBO's universally acclaimed modern-day
Mafia saga "The Sopranos." An explosive, funny,
16:30and loyal lieutenant to mob boss Tony Soprano,
Sirico provided comic relief as Paulie Walnuts,
16:37offering up terse one-liners
and amusing mispronunciations.
16:41"What do ya hear, what do you say?!"
16:44He played similar characters in "Goodfellas,"
"Bullets Over Broadway," and "Mighty Aphrodite."
16:49In recent years, and after "The
Sopranos" ended, Sirico traded
16:53on his image and tendency to be typecast,
playing tough characters on comedy shows,
16:58like a gangster on "American Dad" and a gruff
dog on "Family Guy." Sirico's manager confirmed
17:04to media outlets that the actor died
on Friday, July 8, 2022. He was 79.
17:10Actor Dale Critchlow, who was best known for
playing Lyle the farmer in the offbeat cult
17:14classic "Napoleon Dynamite," died in February
2022, as reported by Deadline. He was 92.
17:21A native of Utah who moved to Idaho in his 30s,
Critchlow landed his small but memorable role
17:27by pure chance. The film was shot on
location in Idaho, where Critchlow lived and
17:32worked as a real farmer. He needed help with
his animals one day, so his wife reached
17:36out to the mother of writer-director
Jared Hess. He told East Idaho News,
17:40"My wife called Jared Hess' mother and
asked if one of her boys was there.
17:44He came over, and he had a friend with him.
I drove the truck out into the pasture,
17:48and the sheep came over. They grabbed
those bucks and pushed them into the
17:52truck [...] and then later, he came back
and [said], 'I want you to be in my movie.'"
17:56Critchlow became well known in his hometown
of Preston after the film became a success,
18:00and was always happy to pose for pictures.
He went on to feature in another comedy,
18:052006's "Church Ball," which was considerably
less successful. But Critchlow remained famous
18:11for his turn in "Napoleon Dynamite," despite not
being overly keen on the film. He said in 2020,
18:17"I thought it was kind of funny in places, and
in a few places, it was kind of dragged out."
