I am sad to learn today that Dom DeLuise, a legendary actor, has passed away in his sleep at the age of 75.
Legendary actor-director Dom DeLuise has died, TMZ is reporting.
The Golden Globe nominated star was 75. According to TMZ, he passed away in his sleep at a Los Angeles hospital.
DeLuise is best known for his roles in several Mel Brooks' classics, such as 'Blazing Saddles,' Spaceballs' and 'Robin Hood: Men in Tights.' Other hits on his resume include 'The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas,' 'Fatso' and 'The Muppet Movie.'
"Fatso" is absolutely hysterical. The scene with his brother in the kitchen, with the locked food cabinets is the most memorable. I haven't heard his name mentioned in a long time, and I'm sad to hear it, today. He was a gem.
