Actor Tim Curry died at the age of 80, Variety, TMZ and other celebrity news outlets reported on Wednesday.
A cause of death was not immediately given but Curry had been in poor health for some time following a severe stroke that left him confined to a wheelchair and wrote in his memoir "Vagabond" last year that he was still not able to walk.
Curry won Laurence Olivier and Tony Award nominations for his work on stage in the UK and the US, as well delivering Emmy-winning TV performances later in his career.
Curry was another member of the class of 1946 to feature in 'Home Alone 2,' as was the current US President Donald TrumpImage: Everett Collection/picture alliance
