James Caan, one of Hollywood's most famed actors, passed away on July 6, 2022 at the age of 82. The native New Yorker began his career in theater in the 1960s, where he first made a name for himself. He eventually transitioned to film and television, where he built a legacy of standout performances, most notably his roles in The Godfather, Rollerball, Thief, A Bridge Too Far, and Misery. Throughout his five-decade-long career, Caan received numerous accolades, including nominations for the Academy Award, Golden Globe, and Emmy Award. Caan's larger-than-life persona and generous spirit made him an iconic presence in the entertainment industry. He will be dearly missed for his immense talent and uplifting presence.
