#RIP Jill Freud. Before she was an actress, she was C.S. Lewis’ housekeeper and his inspiration for Lucy Pevensie in his ‘Chronicles of Narnia’ books. “I was absolutely thrilled. It’s like being told you were the real Lady Macbeth!” she told The Hollywood Reporter in 2014. hollywoodreporter.com/news/general-n…
#RIP Jonathan Farwell. The stage and soap opera veteran was Yul Brynner’s Broadway understudy for nearly 1,500 ‘King & I’ shows but never got on. “Those audiences came to see Yul,” he said. “If I ever tried to take his place, they would eat me for lunch!” hollywoodreporter.com/lifestyle/arts…
#RIP Danny Seagren. Trained by Jim Henson to be a puppeteer, he thrilled youngsters watching ‘The Electric Company’ as the first live-action Spider-Man. “I had to be a little bit campy for the whole thing, [but] I really enjoyed doing it,” he said. hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/dan…
#RIP Tom Stoppard. The ‘Shakespeare in Love’ Oscar winner was one of the finest British playwrights of all time, his prose called “acrobatic.” When asked what ‘Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead’ was about, he replied, “It’s about to make me very rich.” hollywoodreporter.com/lifestyle/arts…
