Re: RIP - Miguel Ferrer

I wonder if he returns for Twin Peaks and if so how much he is in it?

Robocop and Trafic. He ruled in both of those. Loved the guy every time I saw him.

I saw him in one of the promo clips in his FBI suit, so Albert must be in it.

Just read his bio, didn't know his mother was Rosemary Clooney.

He does.

Blank Check was a childhood favorite.

Re: RIP - Miguel Ferrer

He's been on NCIS LA the last several seasons. I wasn't aware that he was sick, but it does make sense now. His voice has been progressively getting worse and it sounds like he had throat cancer.

They wrote in his character as having cancer, so I assume he's going to be written out as dying from it.

Re: RIP - Miguel Ferrer

Oh wow, I have been re-watching Twin Peaks in preparation of the new episodes and Albert has always been one of my favorite characters:

"Now you listen to me. While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I am a naysayer and hatchetman in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method... is love. I love you Sheriff Truman."

Re: RIP - Miguel Ferrer

He was a bright, blazing light in every film in which he had a role.

Absolutely loved him on TP and in RoboCop. Glad he (presumably) will end his career back in TP.

Fuck Cancer.

I hoped he finished filming all of his Twin Peaks episodes for the new season. I love his character!

Re: RIP - Miguel Ferrer

True story, as a baby he had his diapers changed by Marilyn Monroe. I remember someone brought this up on a talk show once and he said he nailed her. It was pretty funny.

He's one of those guys who not a lot of people know him by name, but everyone knew his face. He was definitely one of those "You're that guy!" guys.

RIP.
