Published in Entertainment News
Michael Madsen has died.
The 67-year-old actor - who was best known for his work in Kill Bill and Reservoir Dogs - has passed away after being found unresponsive at his Malibu, California home on Thursday (07.03.25).
Deputies responded to his home after a 911 call early in the morning and he was pronounced dead at the scene, with Michael's manager Ron Smith claiming to Dailymail.com that he died from a "cardiac arrest".
A statement from his representatives said: "In the last two years Michael Madsen has been doing some incredible work with independent film including upcoming feature films Resurrection Road, Concessions and Cookbook for Southern Housewives, and was really looking forward to this next chapter in his life.
'Madsen was also preparing to release a new book called Tears For My Father: Outlaw Thoughts and Poems.
"Michael Madsen was one of Hollywood's most iconic actors, who will be missed by many."
Michael suffered heartbreak in 2022 when his son Hudson took his own life at the age of 26.
The star is survived by his five other children, Jessica who he shared with Dana Mechling, Christian and Max, whose mother is Jeannine Bisignano and Luke and Kalvin, whose mom is Madsen's wife DeAnna Morgan.
Madsen was married to Georganne LaPiere, half-sister of Cher from 1984 to 1988.
He went on to marry Bisignano from 1991 to 1995 before tying the knot with DeAnna in 1996 and welcoming Luke, Kalvin and Hudson together.
The relationship had its ups and downs, and his death comes just 11 months after his domestic violence case - where he was accused of shoving DeAnna - was dismissed due to "insufficient evidence".
Madsen was best known for his work with director Quentin Tarantino, including classics such as 1992's in Reservoir Dogs, 2004's Kill Bill: Volume 2, 2015's The Hateful Eight, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which was released in 2019.
