Default WTH? Ray Liotta has passed - RIP

https://www.tmz.com/2022/05/26/ray-l...ican-republic/

RAY LIOTTA DEAD AT 67

Ray Liotta is dead ... the actor passed away while in the Dominican Republic.
Ray was shooting a movie called "Dangerous Waters" on the island, and died in his sleep ... according to a source close to the actor. We're also told there was nothing suspicious about the death, and no foul play is suspected. His fiancée Jacy Nittolo was with him while he was working on the project.
Deadline first reported his passing.
Liotta is most known for his starring role in the 1990 Martin Scorsese masterpiece, "Goodfellas," where he played mobster Henry Hill alongside Robert De Niro and Joe Pesci. Ray lobbied hard for the role, and the film's success opened so many doors for him in Hollywood ... he worked almost nonstop.
The year before "Goodfellas" he had co-starred with Kevin Costner in another iconic film, "Field of Dreams" ... in which he played Shoeless Joe Jackson.
Ray went on to star in countless other films, including "Cop Land," "Corrina Corrina," "Operation Dumbo Drop," "Unforgettable," "Wild Hogs" and "Blow" ... in which he played Fred Jung, father to Johnny Depp's character, George Jung.
Jacy and Ray got engaged in 2020, right around Christmas. He excitedly shared the happy news on Instagram.
He has one daughter, Karsen Liotta, from his previous marriage to Michelle Grace. Karsen is following in her dad's acting footsteps.

Ray was 67.
RIP

That plain sucks. He was an excellent actor. Great as a bad guy in Something Wild from 1986, one of his first films. I never saw him give a bad performance. RIP

RIP. Good actor, liked his tough guy roles, especially when he beat up the obnoxious Corvette owner in Goodfellas.

It must have been pretty trippy for you seeing that movie in the theater back in the 30s, what with the surprise shift from B&W to Technicolor and all.

Did they let you smoke weed in the theaters back then?

Ten cents for a double feature plus a cartoon and a five minute News Real. No pot and we snuck our candy in. No way were we going to pay 25 cents for candy when we could get it for a nickel.

Did you crawl under the side of the tent and across the straw to your spot on the bench?
