James McCaffrey, the actor best known for voicing the popular video game character Max Payne, has died at the age of 65 following a battle with cancer.
TMZ published a statement from McCaffrey’s representative revealing he passed away Sunday, 17 December, surrounded by friends and family.
“One of **** Wolf’s proteges, McCaffrey went on to a successful 35-year career in television and film. Trained at the Actor’s Studio, he never lost his love for creating characters; however, his good looks often pushed him toward leading man roles,” said McCaffery’s representative to TMZ.
