POLICY WIRE — Los Angeles, USA — Tim Curry, the celebrated English actor known for his unforgettable performances in cult classics such as The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Clue, has passed away at the age of 80.
The legendary performer died on Tuesday night at his residence in Los Angeles, as reported by TMZ. The cause of his death remains undisclosed, though authorities have indicated that no foul play is suspected.
Curry had been grappling with significant health challenges in recent years, following a severe stroke in 2012 that left him wheelchair-bound. Despite these obstacles, he continued to contribute to the entertainment industry through voice acting in various television shows, films, and video games.
