    Ideas and possibilities for 2024

    Harris got a BBC obituary (probably because of Toy Story) and Sheridan didn't, so I think it's fair to say she was the more high-profile of the pair. Unless you're a big fan of ALF.

    Ideas and possibilities for 2024

    Smith and MacLaine are only in their late 80s and seem pretty active. Why would they have already been added to the list? I think Moreno, Burstyn, and Loren are high profile enough to appear soon enough, although none of them seem unhealthy. Doubt they'll ever go for Saint or Grant at this rate. I feel like Estelle Harris only made the list because Stiller also did so I'm not sure I'd classify her as completely random.

    Hollywood Possibilities

    Oscar-nominated cinematographer Bill Butler dead at 101.
  4. I'll say Celeste Holm and Franco Zeffirelli, for some names not already mentioned. There was a mid-2011 NYT article about Holm that detailed her long health history (skin cancer, collapsed lung, memory loss, etc.) and given that she was already 94 then, it wasn't exactly surprising she didn't see 2013. Zeffirelli was very famous and lived well into his 90s, and he looked borderline dead for the last three years or so of his life, so they had plenty of opportunity to pick him and didn't. Oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Deadpool Detective Work

    Jack Bravman can be dropped from here. Everything out there points to him being born in 1944, not 1926. (IMDb refuses to change it for whatever reason.) Skimming through some other names, Warren Hammack is one you can take out as he died in February. Aly Wassil also likely died in September 2018 per familytreenow. I believe @Gisooohad some sources that showed Tony Franke died in 2018 as well.

    Life In Prison

    Turns out George Nassar died off the radar in December 2018. Still got a full NYT obit. "A new movie about the case, “Boston Strangler,” which stars Keira Knightley and Carrie Coon and in which Mr. Nassar is played by Greg Vrotsos, asserts in a postscript that “George Nassar is still in prison in Massachusetts.” That claim intrigued Sarah Weinman, a crime journalist and the Crime & Mystery columnist for The New York Times Book Review. “If he was indeed alive, Nassar would be nearing 90,” she wrote in an email. “Considering he’d revealed a diagnosis of terminal cancer when last interviewed in 2018, the likelihood that he still lived seemed minuscule.” A call by her to the Massachusetts corrections department confirmed his death, though the details were not immediately provided."

    19. Clint Eastwood

    Well if you read this article, it claims Eastwood hasn't been photographed since February 2022 (wrong) and that he didn't attend this year's AT&T Pebble Beach Pro Am (wrong). I guess the internet is broken over at RadarOnline's lying factory

    Died on December 26, 2011. She was known as Dulcie Hammack after her first husband died and then Dulcie Smith. There's no DOB on MyLife, but she was probably born in 1928.
