15 Most Shocking Movie Deaths Of 2016

2. Faraday - The Magnificent Seven

Guardians Of The Galaxy turned Chris Pratt into an A-lister overnight, and he quickly cemented himself with Jurassic World and Passengers. In 2016 he was the co-lead with Denzel Washington in The Magnificent Seven, and while it was a given most of the gang would perish, if you were a betting man the smart money would be on Pratt and Washington making it to the credits; in this case, you’d be half right.

In the finale Pratt's Faraday tries to take down a Gatling gun placement, taking a healthy dose of lead in the process. With his dying breaths he manages to convince the villains to light his cigar, which they oblige. He seems to keel over and die, before revealing a lit stick of dynamite, which promptly destroys the Gatling gun, the villains and himself.

If he had to go, he sure managed it with style.
