Deaths: link here. Hollywood's most notable deaths (so far) of 2025.

  • I guess when Diane Keaton died, it was okay to go with the story, even though it's only October;
  • in no particular order, but this is how the source "ranked" them:
    • Diane Keaton, Robert Redford, Val Kilmer, Sly Stone, Gene Hackman, Michelle Trachtenberg (age 39, natural causes s/p liver transplant; cause of liver failure unknown), Ozzy Osbourne, David Lynch (78), Brian Wilson (82), Jeff Baena (47, suicide) and Irv Gotti are among several entertainment legends the industry lost this year. 
    • same list, different order: Brian Wilson, David Lynch, Robert Redford, Gene Hackman.
