Gene Hackman, wife and dog found dead

The three movies I remember him most in aren't his award winning movies, just ones I liked a lot and watched over and over. They are: The Poseidon Adventure, The Firm, and The Birdcage. He was also the voice in Home Depot commercials for years.

I remember hearing decades ago, that at the start of his and Dustin Hoffman's careers, they were both voted "least likely to succeed" by the Pasadena Playhouse in CA. :lmao:

RIP Mr & Mrs Hackman. (The dog too.)
 
It appears that they may have been dead for quite some time. If so, it's sad that there was no one who kept in touch with them and would have contacted authorities if they could not contact them.
 
loved him as Buck Barrow in Bonnie and Clyde. enjoyed his comical side when he was a guest on Laugh-In and in Young Frankenstine. in our home though he is forevor referred to as "Mr. Luthor".
 
it's been reported that Mr. Hackman's cane and sunglasses were near his body leading to speculation that he had fallen. I have to wonder if he was on his way in or out of the home (he was found in the mudroom) when he heard his wife shout out or fall in the course of having her OWN medical event. aged 96, reportedly unsteady on his feet...he could have fallen himself and been unable to get up or summon help.
