Alan Rickman: Febuary 21st, 1964- January 14th, 2016
Today, the world lost an amazing man. The incredible Alan Rickman, who portrayed Professor Snape died. He died of cancer, which we don't know the details of. He was 69.
I can not imagine anyone who could have played Snape better. Not only did he do INCREDIBLE acting, especially in some very deep scenes, but he dived into the depth of the character. From what I've heard about him, he was an insanely sweet, kind, funny, and talented man. He wasn't only famous for the HP movies; he was in some other very popular and famous movies.
Fun fact: He put a whoopie cushion on Daniel's sleeping bag that he was using in a scene as a joke and so it sounded like he farted :) I've seen a video and the cast were all cracking up!
Today has been a day full of tears. Ever since I've woken up, I've been crying non stop all day. It's been rough, but the ones that love us never truely leave us.
Here are some tweets about his sad passing today:
JK Rowling;
"There are no words to express how shocked and devastated I am to hear of Alan Rickman's death. He was a magnificent actor & a wonderful man."
"My thoughts are with Rima and the rest of Alan's family. We have all lost a great talent. They have lost part of their hearts."
James Phelps:
"Shocked & sad to hear Alan Rickman has passed away. One of the nicest actors I've ever met. Thoughts and prayers with his family at this time."
Jason Isaacs:
"Heartbreaking news about lovely Alan. Nobody else could be as hilarious, tragic, terrifying & truthful all at the same time."
Oliver Phelps:
"Terribly sad news about the passing of Alan Rickman. A funny and engaging person who put a shy young actor at ease when I was on HP."
Emma Watson:
"I'm very sad to hear about Alan today. I feel so lucky to have worked and spent time with such a special man and actor. I'll really miss our conversations. RIP Alan. We love you."
There are so many more, including an amazing paper on him by Daniel Radcliffe.
Alan Rickman will ALWAYS be our Snape, and he will ALWAYS be in our hearts. No one could have done a better job of portraying one of the deepest and intricate characters in history. We love and miss you, Alan. And we will always turn to page 394 for you. ❤️
