Damn rip

[TwiceHorn 31470]

Aw shit.  Dude overcame a lot to be a pretty successful actor.  But apparently not that.

RIP.

Horrible news.  Brilliant actor.  RIP, MKW.

Really good read from Wendell Pierce about Williams. RIP. This really sucks.

[Goredho 17406]

Sad to read this.  There is too much greatness leaving us way too soon these days.

Would not be surprised if fentanyl was found in his system

it's for sure going around right now. 

[billfromlaketravis 11478]

Dammit. Dude seems to be the type that flirted with the dark side. His show on Vice was primarily focused on drug dealing and other illicit actives. 

[Stunns38 3460]

This rumor is definitely gaining traction.

Sad shit, R.I.P.

R.I.P. Omar/Chalkie…..

[The Ace of Aces 5183]

This is a tragedy. Williams was a star in every role he touched. Goddamnit. 

[Prepuce of Doom 21073]

I had no idea he had such a rocky path. Good article to learn a little more about the man behind the roles...

Dammit, dammit, dammit.

Rest easy, brother.

[WhatTheBuck 28781]

Shit. That sucks. I just saw him the other day wishing PBS a happy 50th. RIP.

One of the all time great characters. Omar was originally supposed to be a bit part but he...um...killed it. Then he became an integral part of the show. The Wire wouldn’t have been the same without him.

Whistling The Farmer in the Dell.

Pierce is a VERY thoughtful and serious cat.   Anything he says has real credibility with me.

great interview from this year. really gave me a greater appreciation of the guy. 

[WBT 20571]

It feels like I was one of 17 people that watched it but I really liked him on Hap and Leonard on Sundance.

[Guest]

RIP Chalkie.

 

So many times he owned scenes as a character.  Thought he was great.

Sucks that these folks keep succumbing to this tragic mess.  I will never understand it.  Maybe it's better that way...

[mdmost 43001]

I loved Michael K Williams. He stole every scene he was a part of. I never watched Boardwalk Empire but this may push me to do that. It's a bit of a trudge and you have to fight through some meandering episodes but he was fantastic in Lovecraft Country.

even if i miss i can’t miss.

That would be fun to see it again for the first time.  He did a great job in BE.

Just quoting for emphasis. 

Hap and Leonard was an odd little show but very enjoyable. Excellent cast throughout. It appears to be on Netflix right now, so check it out. 

[lateshow 1304]

Damn it man! He was money in everything. Great actor.

Weird show. I enjoyed it. Showed a different side of him. Who was the other lead, T Jane?

Christina Hendricks's boobs and James Purefoy.
