He was found dead in his apartment by a friend with a needle stuck in his arm. Another great actor gone from a drug overdose, so sad Cry

I was shocked to read that earlier. He was found today, makes it even more surreal.

One of my all time favorite movies starred him.

I always thought he would have made a great Penguin in the Nolan Batman movies.

This is tragic news, he was a great actor! One of the best in my opinion... He really fitted into the Role he played in The Hunger Games. Gunna be a shame he won't be able to round out the series... (The last film is currently being filmed)

I agree Prowl, now that you mention it. He had the right kind of mannerisms in a few things...

I absolutely loved him as Gust in Charlie Wilson's War...

Fantastic and under rated actor! Always thought he was kind of a hot mess though too.

Agreed, it is sad to see such self destruction.

The 'Why?' is what gets me, crap happens in everyone's lives, but what was going on that made him feel he needed to use?

Like you said, it's sad.

As I understand it, he completed filming for Mockingjay pt1 and had seven days of filming left for Mockingjay pt2, so they aren't going to recast him and it won't affect the release dates at all.

It'll probably be off-camera voiceovers using an impersonator, a slight tweak in the story, or reused footage (like they did with Oliver Reed in Gladiator).
