At 81 years old, the highly accomplished actor James Handy has died, with his final cinematic appearance being in the $1.5 billion (£1.12 billion) global hit Top Gun: Maverick.
Handy lost his life on Wednesday, 3 June, after suffering an apparent chest stab wound, the New York Post reports. Police first discovered the heavily bleeding actor outside a Tarzana residence before racing him to a medical centre, though doctors ultimately could not save him. Authorities believe the person responsible for the deadly assault is Michael Gledhill, a 44-year-old who is the son of Handy's girlfriend.
