Michael Madsen, “Reservoir Dogs” Actor, Dies at 67
According to cinemadrame News Agency, Michael Madsen, the actor from the film “Reservoir Dogs,” has passed away at the age of 67. NBC4 Los Angeles confirmed the actor’s death on Thursday, July 3, as due to natural causes.
Apart from “Reservoir Dogs,” Madsen had acting credits in several Quentin Tarantino films, including “The Hateful Eight,” “Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood,” and “Kill Bill,” as well as the “Free Willy” franchise. “Thelma & Louise,” “Sin City,” “Donnie Brasco,” and “Die Another Day” from the “James Bond” franchise are among Madsen’s other films from past years.
In 2020, he told The Independent that he didn’t have a good relationship with Harvey Weinstein, the producer of Tarantino’s films: “Harvey never liked me. I don’t know if he liked anyone, but I know he didn’t like me. He never wanted me in Quentin’s movies. I think I only acted in those films because Quentin supported me and said every time: ‘I’m using Michael whether you like it or not.'”
Madsen was married three times: to Georgina LaPiere (Cher’s sister), Jeannine Bisignano, and his current wife, DeAnna. Last year, he was arrested on domestic violence charges and released on a $20,000 bail.
