Dances With Wolves icon Graham Greene has died aged 73 after a long illness.
The acclaimed actor, who was nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award for his role as Kicking Bird in the 1990 Kevin Costner epic, passed away in a Toronto hospital on Monday.
His representative told Deadline: 'He was a great man of morals, ethics and character and will be eternally missed.'
'You are finally free. Susan Smith is meeting you at the gates of heaven,' he added, referencing the actor’s longtime agent who died in 2013.
Greene was known as an acting trailblazer, who raised the profile of Indigenous actors in Hollywood.
He married wife Hillary Blackmore in 1990 and the pair shared four children.
Greene, who was of Oneida First Nation and Canadian descent, was born on the Six Nations Reserve in Ontario and worked as a welder, draftsman and steelworker before pursuing acting.

Graham Greene, the novelist and more famous Graham Greene, died in 1991.
I remember him from the Red Green Show. He was great.
What? (Edgar Montrose reference).
That is how I remember him.
I’ve seen Dances...once...years ago...and don’t remember much about it. But he was one of the main characters in the Canadian TV comedy series called The Red Green Show and he was *great* in that show.
Kaboom!
My first thought.
I know nothing of his politics, and always liked him in every role I saw him in.
A quality actor.
AFAIK, he may be one of the common species of brain dead Lefties that inhabit entertainment and have for the last eighty years, but he never made it his business to make his politics my business, so I evaluate him for what I know of him.
And I like it that way. I wish it were that way with all of them.
RIP, sir.
He was in a ton of movies.
Malachi Strand in the tv series Longmire.
He enjoyed a long and illustrious career in show business playing Indians.
Ka boom!
Kind of like Jane Seymour the actress, getting gigs because her stage name sounds familiar... Because she stole it from Jane Seymour Queen of England and Henry the XIII’s third wife... Or Anne Hathaway the actress... Who was lucky enough to be named after William Shakespeare’s wife.
The author is more famous... But he was a pretty good actor.
Rest In Peace, Graham Greene.
He did a pretty good job in “Maverick” with Mel Gibson.
RIP He played some very good parts.
Knew the name, found his photo. Impossible you have not seen him in something. Good actor. 188 acting credits going back to 1976, AND 7 more in post production yet to come out per IMDb. RIP.
RIP GG
