Despite beginning his acting career later in life, Gene Hackman—who passed away at the age of 95—became one of Hollywood’s most lucrative celebrities.
At their Santa Fe, New Mexico, home, the US actor, his 64-year-old wife Betsy Arakawa, and their dog were discovered dead.
Although they were discovered “deceased Wednesday,” the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s office in New Mexico stated that the officers “do not believe that foul play was a factor.”
Hackman had a distinguished acting career spanning five decades.
Playing aggressive guys, he was nominated for three Oscars and won two, but he was equally comfortable in humor.
According to one description, he had the visage of a truck driver and was well-suited for both leading and supporting parts.
