‘The Omen’ Actor David Warner Has Passed Away at 80

We’ve learned the sad news this morning that legendary British actor David Warner, an Emmy Award-winning thespian, has passed away at the age of 80 due to a cancer-related illness.

“Warner died on Sunday at Denville Hall, a care home for those in the entertainment industry,” BBC reports. “Over the past 18 months he approached his diagnosis with a characteristic grace and dignity,” Warner’s family said in a statement given to the BBC.

The statement continued, “He will be missed hugely by us, his family and friends, and remembered as a kind-hearted, generous and compassionate man, partner and father, whose legacy of extraordinary work has touched the lives of so many over the years.”

Horror fans will remember David Warner for his work in the original horror classic The Omen back in 1976, wherein he played the role of an ill-fated photographer named Jennings.

On the horror front, Warner also appeared in From Beyond the Grave (1974), Nightwing (1979), The Island (1980), Frankenstein (1984), My Best Friend Is a Vampire (1987), Waxwork (1988), Cast a Deadly Spell (1991), “Tales from the Crypt” (1992), Body Bags (1993), Necronomicon (1993), In the Mouth of Madness (1994), Ice Cream Man (1995), and Scream 2 (1997).

Outside the horror genre, David Warner won a Primetime Emmy in 1981 for the limited series “Masada,” and he had previously been nominated in 1978 for drama series “Holocaust.”

Other notable roles include Time Bandits, TRON, The Company of Wolves, Star Trek V, “Twin Peaks,” Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II, “Batman: The Animated Series,” “Spider-Man: The Animated Series,” Titanic, “Superman: The Animated Series,” and “Penny Dreadful.”
