Patrick Stewart, the acclaimed British stage and screen actor renowned for both Shakespeare and science-fiction, has died. He was 86.
The Star Trek: the Next Generation and X-Men star died on Wednesday at his home in Los Angeles after “a brief and poignant journey with Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia”, said Kelly Bush Novak, his longtime spokesperson, to the Hollywood Reporter.
“He has been held in the warm embrace of family and friends, surrounded by live music, prayer, tears, laughter and the kind of profound emotion that only he could inspire after a lifetime of devotion to us all,” she wrote.
“We will forever cherish the peaceful ease and reflection on his face, an enduring reminder of his invincible grace.”
