20 Actors We Lost In 2024

7. Tony Todd

The Mandalorian Carl Weathers
Warner Bros.

Tony Todd had one of the all-time most iconic voices in not just horror cinema, but film and general entertainment media, his seductively gravelly vocal tenor lending instant menace to innumerable villain roles.

Todd is of course best known for portraying the title character in Candyman, and William Bludworth in the Final Destination franchise, while more recently he gave a pitch-perfect performance as Venom in the video game Marvel's Spider-Man 2.

A few weeks after his death, the Indiana Jones and the Great Circle video game was released, where he portrayed the villainous Locus, and his final film role will be, quite fittingly, a reprisal of his Final Destination role in the upcoming sixth film.

Tony Todd died on November 6, 2024 at the age of 69.
