R.I.P. Prolific Actor Miguel Ferrer Has Passed Away
Today we’re sad to report that Miguel Ferrer lost his battle with cancer. He was 61.
A prolific and totally unmistakable actor with well over 100 films and television shows on his resume, Ferrer made a handful of stops in the horror genre throughout his career, notably appearing in Stephen King adaptations The Stand and The Night Flier. He also starred in three episodes of “Tales from the Crypt” in the early ’90s, and did uncredited voicework on the 1997 mini-series iteration of “The Shining.” Of course, Ferrer is known to many genre fans as FBI Agent Albert Rosenfield in “Twin Peaks,” a role he reprised for Showtime’s upcoming revival of the series.
One of Ferrer’s earliest breakout roles saw him play the sleazy Bob Morton in RoboCop, and he’s perhaps best known to the masses thanks to his extended starring roles in shows like “Crossing Jordan” and “NCIS: Los Angeles.” He spent much of his career on the small screen, also recurring on “Desperate Housewives,” “The Protector,” and “Bionic Woman.”
Miguel Ferrer, the son of Jose Ferrer and Rosemary Clooney, and cousin of George Clooney, is survived by his wife Lori, sons Lukas and Rafi, and siblings Maria, Gabriel, Monsita, and Rafael.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
