Andy Whitfield dies

[RickN]

Sorry Badgebunny I remember you saying that you liked the show.

For those that do not know, Whitfield was the start of Spartacus: Blood and Sand. He was 39 and died of cancer.

Waaay too young ........

That's a bummer, he was a talented actor....was looking forward to seeing him in another season. RIP.

That's a bummer. He seemed like a genuinely nice fella besides the fact that he was a good actor and SMOKIN' HAWT ...

IIRC he had little ones at home too. He was way too young. Sad.

That is sad, he was great in that show, and really seemed like an awesome guy all around.

The show itself will go on, they announced several weeks back that they had someone else stepping into the role, and that Andy had worked with him a bit bringing him up to speed, etc, and that it was with his blessing.

So young, man.

^^^^^^^^^^^This. I've seen too many people die because of cancer.

I lost my dad to cancer in Dec of 2010 at 55. I have also seen many others die from cancer. Like I said cancer sucks...

Really Sad. I thought he would battle this like he did Crixus!
