gkgyver 1,647 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Renowned British actor Richard Griffith, internationally known for his role in the Harry Potter films as Uncle Vernon Dursley, died after heart surgery. He was only 65 years old.http://www.tmz.com/2013/03/29/richard-griffiths-dead-harry-potter-dies/
King Mark 3,975 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Well ripTo be honest he looked like he was at death's door for about 10 years
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,386 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Loved him in Naked Gun 2 1/2!
Quintus 6,494 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I remember him from Pie in the Sky. RIP Loved him in Naked Gun 2 1/2!I thought he was already in his late fifties in that. Geez.
King Mark 3,975 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Who will play Vernon in the HP Prequels then?
Naïve Old Fart 13,021 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I hate to be pedantic, guys, but his name was Richard Griffiths.He was also the snotty desk-clerk in "Chariots Of Fire", and one of the French terrorists in "Superman II".Does any-one remember "Bird Of Prey"?
Marian Schedenig 11,694 Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I was familiar with him long before Harry Potter. Just recently I rewatched A Private Function. Griffiths did look bad in the last few Potter installments, but I was never sure if that was due to makeup or himself. As far as I remember, he looked much better in Hugo.
