Dabney Coleman, actor who specialised in curmudgeons, dies at 92
Dabney Coleman, the moustachioed character actor who specialised in smarmy villains such as the chauvinist boss in 9 to 5 and the nasty TV director in Tootsie, has died. He was 92.
Coleman died Thursday, his daughter, Quincy Coleman, told The Hollywood Reporter. No other details were immediately available.
“The great Dabney Coleman literally created, or defined, really – in a uniquely singular way – an archetype as a character actor. He was so good at what he did it’s hard to imagine movies and television of the last 40 years without him,” Ben Stiller wrote on X.
