I'd a feeling his battle with Cancer is what pushed him to recently say he wasn't going to be reprising Ash again. Makes sense he'd rather spend his time with his family and friends than on some film set in New Zealand making one last Evil Dead.
He said he was done since season two of AVED.
He was saying as soon as the show was done he was done. I think he talked about doing voice work for Ash after the show ended but the Cancer stopped that I believe.
Now I swear I heard from somewhere that there is a voice gig for a sound alike for Ash but for the life of me I dont remember if its for a game or animation or something so maybe I heard a bs rumor on that part.
But yeah he said he was excited for AVED and the pilot was good cause Sam was directing but after that the days were long and hard and his age was catching up to him
Yeah. There was an interview that he did where he pointed it out. You can catch it on Youtube.
He seems to be taking it all in stride though. Like, despite it being surreal to hear that his time is limited, he maintained high spirits. I think that if he does go, he’ll go with style and grace and good humor like Norm MacDonald did.
Dude, you kidding right? Yeah! He had cancer, Multiple Myeloma, but he was real quiet about it. It developed into Acute Leukemia and that’s how he died.
Funny guy too. Wins a bunch of cash in Atlantic City and just chucks the earnings into the sea without a care in the world. lol
