Sam Neill, the New Zealand actor best known for his leading role in the blockbuster Jurassic Park franchise and in BBC series Peaky Blinders, has died at the age of 78.
His name on the credits was a stamp of quality on the production, and as such he was more of a star than he ever seemed to consider himself. I don't recall ever seeing him in anything that I didn't consider great, so thanks Sam and rest in peace.
Most of our childhoods i absolutely loved him jurrasic park dead calm brilliant movies and lets not forget he was adult Damien such a sad one this is may he rest in peace 🙏 ❤
When I was young I used to love him in "Reilly Ace Of Spies". He had such a long and interesting career never being typecast which is quite a rare achievement. He'll be missed.
He said he was not afraid of dying when he got his cancer diagnosis..but was scared of retiring..what a wonderful human…he was a thorough gentleman…kind, gracious, dignified, thoughtful, caring, all the traits we can look up to….he will Rest in Peace because thats what good and decent people deserve.
Rest in Peace, a man who gifted us a wonderful childhood. ❤🕊
