NY Post
Oscar-nominated actor Graham Greene has died.
The Canadian star passed away on Sunday, in a Toronto hospital with his wife, Hilary Blackmore, by his side, his rep confirmed to TMZ.
Greene — known for his roles in classic films like “Dances with Wolves” and “The Green Mile” — was a man of high moral character who will be missed, his rep added in a statement to The Post, noting the star was “finally free.”
He did not reveal Greene’s cause of death; however, the actor’s rep said he lost his battle with a “lengthy illness” but did not elaborate.
Greene made his onscreen debut in 1979, starring in the Canadian drama series “The Great Detective.” His first feature film was 1983’s “Running Brave,” with his big break coming years later in the Oscar-winning 1990 picture “Dances with Wolves.”
Greene played “Kicking Bird” alongside Kevin Costner’s Lieutenant Dunbar. The role earned Greene an Academy Award nomination for best supporting actor in 1991.
