    That's right, they're filming movies 3 and 4 at the same time. I wonder if he was done shooting his part?

    One of my favorite actors. He reminded me of John Malkovich in terms of his range and his choices of interesting roles.

    Word is they found him with a needle in his arm. Fuck, but heroin is a scary drug.

    Yeah! This is where I first heard about him. Loved this guy. One of the best, most versatile actors of our time, IMO.
