Ned Beatty graced Hollywood screens for almost 50 years. He has died of natural causes at age 82.
Beatty’s first film was the three-time Academy Award winning ‘Deliverance’. He played Bobby Trippe.
After that Beatty became a fixture of major movies starring in ‘Superman’ and ‘Superman II’, ‘All The President’s Men’, ‘Exorcist II’, ‘Network’, ‘The Last American Hero’ and ‘The Thief Who Came To Dinner’.
More recently Ned played Lots-O’-Huggin Bear in ‘Toy Story 3’.
All up Ned Beatty acted in over 150 movies and television shows.
Ned retired in 2013. He had eight children.
The primal forces of nature have come to collect Ned Beatty. He was great in NETWORK, SUPERMAN, DELIVERANCE and the TV series HOMICIDE (and so much more), but don’t forget his chilling, villainous turns in WHITE LIGHTNING and MIKEY AND NICKY. https://t.co/cJMoFevJBx

RIP Ned Beatty!!I’ve always had such fond memories of him. He brought so much to Otis and brought him to life like no other actor could have.
