Na madrugada de ontem para hoje (28) recebemos a notícia de que o lendário ator britânico John Hurt morreu aos 77 anos de idade.
O artista teve uma carreira de quase 60 anos em filmes, séries de TV e trabalhos de narração e dublagem e entrou para a história em trabalhos como Alien, Harry Potter e 1984.
Como era de se esperar, vários grandes atores, atrizes, diretores, músicos e mais gente ligada à arte da atuação prestou homenagem a John Hurt, e separamos algumas das mensagens por aqui, como você pode ver logo abaixo.
Em declaração para o Entertainment Weekly, a atriz Natalie Portman falou a respeito de John Hurt, com quem trabalhou no filme V de Vingança (2005) e Jackie (2016), sendo que esse foi o último filme do qual o ator participou:
Estou extremamente triste ao ficar sabendo da morte de John. Tive sorte o suficiente para fazer dois filmes com ele – e ambos foram elevados a outro nível por causa de suas atuações. Ele era o ator mais talentoso, e também um ser humano profundamente bom, engraçado, poético, inteligente e sensível. Envio meu amor para toda sua família nessa hora tão difícil, e me junto aos fãs já que temos a chance de assistir aos seus filmes, que temos para sempre.
So very sad to hear that the immensely talented and deeply beloved John Hurt has died. My thoughts are with his family and friends.

John Hurt was the center of the best scene in Alien, and then was cool enough to parody it in Spaceballs. #RIP

The crumpled grandeur of John Hurt was always a joy to behold. That voice, those eyes – an almost painful sensitivity. So many wonders. RIP.

John Hurt was nothing if not movingly human. Loyal, loving and incredibly intelligent and kind. He was family.
