Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman has been found dead in his Manhattan apartment after an apparent drug overdose.

The Hollywood star, who won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his performance in the 2005 film Capote, was 46 years old.

His other film credits included The Big Lebowski, Mission: Impossible III, and The Talented Mr Ripley.

Last year he revealed he was forced to check himself into rehab after taking prescription pills and snorting heroin, having managed to stay clean for 23 years.

He reportedly admitted he "started off taking prescription pills which escalated to snorting heroin".

The star was apparently concerned he was about to lose control and so checked himself into a detox facility on the East Coast.

Such a shame I loved him in Capote and Doubt.

That's so sad. I wonder how it'll change The Hunger Games: Mockingjay. He was in The Hunger Games:Catching Fire and part 1 of Mockingjay. They were in mid-filming for Mockingjay part 2...

I was thinking that too. It would be really lucky if they filmed all of his scenes early.
And those clips of The Late Quartet look good. Might watch it today.

He had 7 days left of filming Mockingjay Part 2, Part 1 is completed. They may have to re-shoot.

Self-inflicted? Don't care.

Addiction is a serious problem, it's not as simple "self inflicted".

[Eedee]

Damn... I never knew he had drug issues. Great actor though.

[Kill You]

Self-inflicted? Don't care.

It's not like he meant to kill himself though lol. He wanted to get hiiiiiiiigh and now he's six feet low.

This man was underrated imo.
The first time I saw that scene in Hannibal: Red Dragon where he wakes up literally glued to that wheelchair was intense. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbiDj6vJfug

Sucks to hear he passed.
