R.I.P. Michael Massee of ‘The Crow’ and ‘Se7en’ Has Passed Away at 61
Very sad news to report as it’s making its way around that actor Michael Massee has passed away at the age of 61. No reason for his passing has been released as of yet.
Massee was known for playing FunBoy in The Crow as well as the sleazy massage parlor booth guy in Se7en. He also played Ira Gaines in “24”, appeared in “The X-Files” in the episode “The Field Where I Died”, and played Andy in Lost Highway.
What I loved about watching Massee was that he had this charm to his malevolence. He managed to portray slimy yet vicious to a T and I can’t imagine his roles with anyone else in them. It’s a sad, sad day.
We send our deepest condolences to his family and friends.
