Being reported as a suspected suicide.
A brilliant stand-up comedian, comedic actor and also a superb actor in serious roles.
He battled addictions in his early days, but this news still comes as a massive shock.
RIP

Very sad.
Just shows the difference between the public face and private suffering for people with depression. The tears of a clown.

+1 to this but also a tremendous serious actor too, Good will hunting and especially (for me) Dead Poets society were very good. I remember welling up seeing this scene in a cinema and it was the first thing I thought of when seeing the news of his death. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aS1esgRV4Rc

Absolutely gutted to hear about Robin Williams RIP.
I loved that man's work.
My favourite quote of his about his addiction problems were that he "took cocaine to slow down" which is possibly only amusing to those that have been there, so those of you that haven't will just have to trust me on that one.
The news was made even worse by the fact that I originally thought it was Robbie.

as a gauge of how well a person is liked ,appreciated,loved,respected or held in high regard for the conntent of there lives and what they gave to there fellow man our very mortal way to show this is to make a film about there life story....no dout some holywood producers have it in hand as a project for the future...... big shoes for some actor to do justice to in this case.....
