Wow. He looked fine during the Ghostbusters Afterlife promotional circuit just months ago.

This really sucks. What a film legend.

Just saw him on TV today talking about John Candy. Did you know that the part in Ghostbusters that Rick Moranis played was written specifically for John Candy?

Simple statement that his first production was Animal House. When you read about how tight the budget was for AH and how tight the shooting schedule, he becomes a really brilliant worker in a world where all budget overruns are now accepted (any Tom Cruise movie).

The funny thing is the college he filmed at had no idea what was to come.
