Damnit. We lost a real gem in Robert Carradine. We worked together on Supercross, a film built around a love of motorcycles we both shared. I always enjoyed seeing Bobby, especially when he’d come by the dealership. He loved Harleys and he loved to ride.
Thinking of his family and friends.

Rest easy 🪽
Eric Dane was a good man. We weren’t lifelong friends, but we crossed paths enough for me to know his strength and his heart. ALS is merciless. My thoughts are with his family.
Rest easy 🪽
🚨🇺🇸BREAKING: Eric Dane has passed away at 53 after a battle with ALS.
Known as "McSteamy" on Grey's Anatomy and Cal Jacobs on Euphoria, he spent his final months advocating for ALS research.
"If I'm going out, I'm gonna go out helping somebody."
He did exactly that. Rest in peace.
I am gutted. Robert Duvall I will miss you brother.
I took this photo of Bobby on his back porch after a lovely meal prepared by his wife Luciana at their ranch in Virginia. That whole day is engraved in my memory.
Luciana cooked the beef Argentina style and we sat for hours talking. We talked about the film we made with Billy Bob Thornton, Jayne Mansfield’s Car. Bobby called Billy Bob “the redneck Orson Welles” and he meant it lovingly.
We talked horses, dogs, Clemson football, dancing the tango and Marlon Brando. At one point he told me to go find the letter Marlon had sent him after they worked together on The Godfather. It was typed and perfectly composed. Bobby was more proud of that letter than his Oscar. Marlon was the actor he looked up to.
I had ridden across country to attend Rolling Thunder with New York Myke and I so enjoyed being with Bobby. He was the actor I looked up to. His ability to find the truth of a scene was something special.
Over the years I would call Bobby and we’d talk movies and barbecue. He loved barbecue and I’d always let him know when I was having it in Lockhart, Texas. Smitty’s or Kreuz or Blacks… which one was best.
I will miss Bobby. I will always be proud that I got to play his son. Rest in peace brother.
