Very sad news.
Legendary actor Alan Rickman has died today aged 69 after a battle with cancer.
The Guardian are reporting that Rickman died in London and his death has been confirmed by his family.
A much-beloved star of stage and screen over the last number of decades, Rickman delivered a series of outstanding performances in a number of memorable roles, such as villain Hans Gruber in Die Hard, Professor Snape in the Harry Potter movies and Eamon de Valera in Michael Collins.
In a week where the world lost one of the greatest musicians of all time, it must also bid farewell to one of the most beloved actors in the film industry.
May he rest in peace.
