GENE HACKMAN – 90

Gene Hackman’s career proved itself fruitful for over six decades. He worked on-screen as an actor and as a novelist during his free time. He really did his best during this time. That is why he bagged numerous accolades, including five Academy Award nominations, taking home one Best Actor Award for the 1971 movie French Connection, and a Best Supporting Actor Award for the 1992 movie Unforgiven.

In 2008, Hackman announced his official retirement, only considering projects that required little of him. A few years later, he shocked the industry after being hit by a car in Florida Keys. There have not been any major fatalities regarding this issue. However, we still hope he had good insurance coverage and only suffered minor injuries. If he could get back on his feet again and take some major roles, we know that he would still rock them even with his age right now.
