Dennis Hopper, who I will always remember as the original Zorro and a disgruntled bomb tech holding a speeding bus hostage and Cannibal has died today at the age of 74 ending his struggle with prostate cancer.

NY Times reports:

Dennis Hopper, whose portrayals of drug-addled, often deranged misfits in the landmark films “Easy Rider,” “Apocalypse Now” and “Blue Velvet” drew on his early out-of-control experiences as part of a new generation of Hollywood rebel, died Saturday at his home in Venice, Calif. He was 74.

Starting his career in the early 50s and working right up unto his untimely death the aging actor was a legend in his own right.

Mr Hopper you will always be remembered.
