The actor Ray Liotta has passed away while in the Dominican Republic. Liotta was shooting a film called ‘Dangerous Waters’ on the island and die in his sleep according to sources close to the actor. There was nothing suspicious about his death and no foul play is suspected. Jacy Nittolo, his fiance, was with him on the island.
Liotta was perhaps best known for his role in the 1990 Martin Scorcese film ‘Goodfellas’ where he played Henry Hill alongside veterans like Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci. It was the role that really launched his career and he became a household name in Hollywood.
Actor Ray Liotta Found Dead At 67!
He did a wide array of films, from hardcore gangter flicks to comedy. Films like ‘Cop Land’, ‘Blow’ and ‘Field of Dreams’ were some of his best-known roles, but he was also great in things like ‘Wild Hogs’ and the FX series ‘The League’ for a few episodes where he got to flex more of his comedy muscles.
Undoubtedly an all-time great and his role as Henry Hill will forever live on as one of the best portrayals and films of all-time. We wish the best for his family in these difficult times and will be watching his films this weekend to remember him.
He was only 67. Rest in peace.
