What a heartbreaking week it has been. Sir Patrick Stewart was a friend, a colleague, and a magnificent actor. From the stage to the bridge of the Enterprise, he brought intelligence, grace, and a deep sense of humanity to everything he did. Captain Picard stood for the best of us, and so did the man who played him. I was filled with affection and admiration for him and his work.
My heart goes out to Sunny and his family. He will be deeply missed.
Patrick Stewart, the British actor known for his roles in "Star Trek: The Next Generation" and the "X-Men" movie franchise, has died. He was 86.
A post on his official social media pages noted that Stewart died Wednesday "following a brief and poignant journey" with Alzheimer's and Lewy body dementia. "He has been held in the warm embrace of family and friends, surrounded by live music, prayers, tears, laughter and the kind of profound emotion that only he could inspire after a lifetime of devotion to us all," the statement said.
He got his start on stage, joining the Royal Shakespeare Company and, in 1971, making his first Broadway appearance in "A Midsummer Night’s Dream."
In the late 1980s, his big break in TV came when he played Capt. Jean-Luc Picard, guiding the Starship Enterprise on "Star Trek: The Next Generation." He reprised the role in the 2020s in the series " Star Trek: Picard."
On the big screen, he played Professor Charles Xavier in the 2000 blockbuster "X-Men" and in multiple sequels.
In 2001, Stewart became an Officer of the Order of the British Empire. Eight years later, he received a knighthood.
