I first heard of him in Reilly: Ace of Spies and loved The Dish and The Hunt for Red October

Sad news.

Oh, he was a wonderful actor. So many great performances. I read his memoir recently and he talked about being in remission from cancer. He will be missed.

Really sad
He was fantastic in peaky blinders

I was a very big fan of his. Gorgeous looking and had a lovely manner about him.

So sad to learn this. Always loved him and he came across as a thoroughly nice man too.

Oh no :-( jp will always be a classic

Such sad news, fantastic actor. X

Always enjoyed watching Sam Neil. Dead Calm to Jurassic Park. Agree he came across as a nice man.

that is sad

Very sad . A great actor .

Very sad about this, I'd forgotten about The Dish.

It is sad news. Apparently he was still cancer-free and his death was sudden and unexpected.

He acted in a couple of films earlier this year, which are not due for release until next year.

A lovely man and a good actor. That's sad news

Sad news indeed. Hunt For The Wilderpeople is a favourite of mine.

I’m watching The Twelve at the moment,
Very sad news, RIP

Ah no way 😪 Loved Same Neill xx

Very sad news, and such a shock.

RIP Sam.

Literally just finished watching him in that new drama on Apple - “Apples don’t fall” with Annette Bening. It was bloody brilliant and he was great in it.

How could you forget The Dish and the world's most excruciating version of The House of the Rising Sun??

I first saw him in Kane and Abel!

It's very sad as he was cancer free and this was apparently sudden. I loved his work and his Instagram. His friendship with Jeff Goldblum was very sweet but mainly I loved his videos with his pigs and animals. He loved his country and a simple life it seems, despite still working. He was incredibly attractive even in his seventies and I enjoyed The Twelve very recently.

Glad his family were with him.

RIP to Sam Neill, who always seemed to have such a gentle manner.

That’s really sad news. He was an incredibly effective actor. RIP.

I need to watch it again!

Hi social media videos of life on his farm and his absolute joy at being surrounded by animals was just magnificent. He seemed such a peaceful man, content to be at home looking after pigs and chickens.

What a loss

Very sad to hear this 😢
what’s going on with deaths at the moment, one every day nearly at the moment
