It's been a pretty brutal week for celebrity deaths so far, with the announcement that the legendary Dolly Parton had passed away yesterday, but today's news hits a bit harder for those within the gaming industry. First reported by TMZ, legendary actor Tim Curry has now sadly passed away at the age of 80.
According to TMZ's report, Curry passed away at some point on Tuesday night after police arrived at his house in Los Angeles at 11:23PM. No cause of death appears to have been released just yet, but TMZ has reportedly been told that there was no foul play in the case. In fact, it's been reported for a while that Curry has been dealing with pretty severe health issues for quite some time.
Tim Curry was obviously more well known for his villainous roles in massive TV shows and movies like Rocky Horror Picture Show, Muppet Treasure Island and The Wild Thornberrys, but he lent his voice to almost every medium out there during his career, including gaming.
He had a handful of roles in a few notable games, though you'll most likely remember his iconic role as Premier Anatoly Cherdenko in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3. The delivery of the line "SPACE" has tickled many gamers across the globe with how hammy and ridiculous it is, and you can even see people flocking to clips of that very moment on YouTube to pay their respects.
