The actor David Warner passed away this Sunday July 24, 2022 at Denville Hall, a residence for personalities in the entertainment industry, at the age of almost 81 years.
His family has been in charge of making the sad news known through a public statement in which they have revealed that he spent the last 18 months of his life following a cancer treatment “with the grace and dignity that characterized him” and finally lost his life due to a disease-related complication in the early hours of the day.
The interpreter’s career spanned six decades, but the public remembers him mainly for giving life to somewhat sinister characters such as Rose’s fiancé’s butler and part-time bodyguard in ‘Titanic’ who chased her around the liner while she tried to sneak out with Jackor the photographer in the 1976 version of the film ‘The Prophecy’.
Warner’s last big-screen appearance was in a sweeter role as Admiral Boom in “Mary Poppins Returns.” In total, his resume includes more than a hundred titles in film and television, but his career began in the theater in 1962, where he was a highly respected figure for his work as Hamlet or Henry VI.
