RAMROD 117,197 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 The actor Sam Neill, known for his roles in the Jurassic Park films, has died aged 78. His family says "the loss was sudden and unexpected", adding he died in Sydney "surrounded by family, and passed with the dignity that has characterized his whole life" He played Dr Alan Grant in the first Jurassic Park in 1993, and in later films in the franchise. In March 2023, Sam Neill revealed he had been diagnosed with cancer, describing it as "a ferocious type of aggressive" non-Hodgkin lymphoma. However, in April of this year, he announced to the media that he was cancer free after undergoing CAR-T cell (Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell) therapy. "We’ve just had a scan just now and there is no cancer in my body, that’s an extraordinary thing," Neill told Australian outlet 7 News. In the statement from the actor's family, they confirm that Neill "remained cancer free", describing his death as "sudden and unexpected". https://www.bbc.com/news/live/crl1gk55rzet (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ✧*:･ﾟ ᶠʳᵒⁿᵗ ᵗᵒʷᵃʳᵈ ᵉⁿᵉᵐʸ (*´艸｀*) ♡♡♡ 1 28 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Future Lovers 7,631 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 This is one of those rare celeb deaths that genuinely brought a tear to my eye. A man absolutely synonymous with my childhood. I watched Jurassic Park 2-3 times a week as a kid. He had an amazing career with amazing roles beyond Jurassic Park of course. An absolute talent and one of the coolest to ever do it. Damn, dude. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DESTROY UR DISEASE 20,006 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Omg nooo, not another one of my faves Event Horizon might be my favorite horror movie of all time And there's also this little known fact but there's this TV series from 2001 called Space that the little obssesed with space me would be watching from time to time. Imagine my reaction when I found out about last year that Sam was the one that hosted the series. RIP to him I can smell your sickness I can... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
