10 Actors Who Died From Movie Roles

The film industry can be a ruthless place. Once there and creating stories; you get the whole other side of the world of dreams. That is money, popularity and skin tight reptiles pretending to like you because you’re name is Dicaprio. These actors have tragically lost their lives for the dedication or commitment to their film role.

1. Vic Morrow is one that made more horribly terrible because three were killed when a special effect explosion caused a helicopter to crash land on top of Vic Morrow and two children he was carrying. Afterwards it was found the filmmakers and director who used the studio alias so his name was put on the film, where breaking the rules by using child actors past the curfew. Morrow was a respected actor; television icon. His death was and the death of those involved are one of movies worst accidents in history.
2. Bruce Lee was a legendary martial artist and personal role model of mine. He was trained by the legendary Ip-Man whose films are the of taking liberties. The feats he could achieve physically are something for another video, but by reaching the peak of physical fitness he sacrificed a lot. Damaging his back while not warming up during some goood morning routines. He took painkillers for this after miraculously recovering from something the doctors told him he would take away his martial arts. At the height of his career; the industry that would not accept him because of his race gave him an unheard of deal for the movie Enter The Dragon as a studio worked with chinese studio for the first time. It was during this film that left a terrible strain and torment on Bruce who was juggling his workout, martial arts and acting out strenuous fights. Weak and passing out during dubbing for the film; he made a misadventure when he took aspirin that had a chemical reaction and caused him to die from swelling of the brain with the pain medication he took for his back. His birth certificate states death by misadventure. More tragically his son Brandon Also died on the set of the crow from crew miscalculation.
3. Philip Seymour Hoffman relapse from drug addiction. His relapse was not one that was intended to be a suicide, he had been attending narcotics anonymous. His death is one that caused many of his peers to mourn the loss; including Paul Thomas Anderson. It is considered that his last film role caused him to return to drugs.
4. David Carradine is probably most well known for his TV series, that was originally created by Bruce Lee, but rejected him when the studio did not want an asian man playing an asian monk, weird right. But Caradine still made the role his own; and went on to star in B movies as a masculine character actor. QT used him as the title character Bill for his homage volumes to shaw brothers films and spaghetti westerns. In 2009, at the age of 72, David Carradine was found dead in his room at the hotel in Central Bangkok, Thailand. He was in Bangkok to shoot his latest film. Official stated he was hanging from a rpe naked in his hotel room closet. Carradine death was the result of autoerotica asphyxiation.
5. John Candy was a comedic legend, really underrated funnyman know for portly sized characters. His best film was when he was perfectly put beside the great steve martin in his prime in Planes Train and Automobiles. He died of a massive heart attack from heart disease on March 4, 1994 -- the same night that he filmed his final scene in Wagons East. He called his co stars to congratulate them and went to bed. By the next morning he was dead. The was panned by critics as an unworthy farewell to Candy who had starred in nearly 40 films..
6. Years on from Natalie Wood's death and there is still an air mystery behind what happened to her. Natalie Wood was on her boat Splendor and was at the time filming the movie Brainstorm opposite Christopher Walken. On Nov. 29, 1981, he accompanied her and her husband Wagner on a late night cruise of California, in the hours before dawn. What is known is Woods and Wagner argued -- Woods went overboard -- unable to swim -- Woods drown. The movie did not attract moviegoers. The director known for special effect work on Close Encounters of The Third Kind; retired immediately.
7. Marilyn Monroe the year before her death divorced Arthur Miller and the death of Clark Gable contributed to her spiraling depression, during which she began using sedatives heavily. The sex icon; died on Aug 5 1962, before she could finish filming “SOmething's Got to Give.
8. Steve Irwin was killed by a sting ray on September 4 2006, while filming Ocean's deadliest. He and his cameraman were in chest deep water. The pair came across an eight foot stingray, It stabbed wildly at Irwin. His last words were, “I’m Dying.”
9. Paul Mantz. This legendary aviator could perform feats with planes. After performing unbelievable stunts for films he retired. The daredevil  died on july 8 1965 while performing a stunt for the flight of the phoenix -- a movie he came out of retirement for . He was flying of a desert in Arizona when his plane struck a hill and broke into pieces, immediately killing the aviator. The footage was not used in the film.
10. James Deans last film Giant was in late production when he died. Paul Walker's death was in mid production of Fast Seven. Dean was only half Walkers age when he died in car accident -- his lines were redubbed as they were hard to make out. Walker was only a passenger when his car hit a tree bursting into flames; Walker would have his brother finish his role with the help of CGI. Both were taken way too soon as each one where speeding when the unthinkable happened.
11. Heath Ledger’s last performance  not count Dr Parnaruss that used other actors to fill in his role; is a crowning magnum opus that if he lived would set off his career as one the most dedicated performaces ever commited to IMAX. He locked himself in hotel room with light for days to home in on Batman arch nemisis; writing in a journal a deep and dark prince of crime in a realistic battlefield in the streets of gotham. An honoray Oscar shows the awards altough pointless, have their moments. He died from the insomnia and dyforia the character caused. Reaction unwell to sleeping pills.
