dpberr Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 I know Die Hard is a 34-year old movie, but it makes me sad watching it these days seeing all the actors in it who've passed away. I mostly remember Clarence Gilyard for his role in Walker, Texas Ranger. That show ran for quite some time - 1993-2001. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember him from Die Hard mostly and his famous "The quarterback is toast" line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 So I assumed this was about Officer Al Powell, who I loved in Die Hard. Nope! Wrong guy. He's still alive and ticking at age 70. RIP Clarence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Without looking it up, was he the tech guy? All I know is that this serves as my annual reminder to watch the movie this month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw his photo and remembered him as either working a laptop or possibly the laser that cut into the vault--or maybe both. Sort of the nerdy guy who was doing technical stuff.
