Bob Hoskins Dead at 71

TMZ- Bob Hoskins -- perhaps best known for his role opposite a bunch of cartoons in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" -- died on Wednesday. He was 71. 

His agent told the BBC he passed away following a bout with pneumonia. Hoskins retired from acting in 2012 after he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

 

Most of our generation know him for his most important work: Eddie Valiant in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and Smee in Hook. Probably two of the most important films in cinema history. He will be missed.
