HarryPotter Star Robbie Coltrane Dead at 72
Robbie Coltrane, the Scottish character actor who became beloved by a generation of moviegoers as Hagrid in the Harry Potter franchise of films, has died, according to a statement from his agency, WMA. He was 72 years old. Prior to Harry Potter, the star had a memorable role as Valentin Dmitrovich Zukovsky in the James Bond films GoldenEye and The World Is Not Enough.
In that special, Coltrane reflected on the power of storytelling, and his own mortality. He teared up as he told the crew,"The legacy of the movies is that my children's generation will show them to their children ....So you could be watching it in 50 year's time, easily. I'll not be here, sadly -- but Hagrid will, yes."
Coltrane's film career started in 1980, and he almost immediately found himself in the genre space with a minor role in Flash Gordon. He became more recongizable a few years later playing various roles on U.K. sketch shows like A Kick Up the Eighties, Alfresco, and Laugh??? I Nearly Paid My Licence Fee.
In 1987 and 1988, Coltrane scored roles in two different Blackadder specials, including the Spirit of Christmas in Blackadder's Christmas Carol.
