(UPI) — Boston Public and Dazed and Confused actor Nicky Katt has died at the age of 54.

His lawyer John Sloss confirmed the sad news to The New York Times, TMZ and The Hollywood Reporter Sunday, but he did not offer any details about the cause or circumstances of his death.

The South Dakota native appeared in dozens of films and TV shows from the time he was a child.

Among his credits include Fantasy Island, CHIPS, The Facts of Life, Uncle Buck, Sin City, Boiler Room, School of Rock, A Time to Kill, Batman & Robin, The Way of the Gun, Monk and Casual.

“You could always count on Nicky Katt for many things. He’d come in incredibly prepared for a role with costumes and props,” filmmaker Robert Rodriguez, who worked with Katt on Planet Terror, wrote on X Sunday.

Sad, but it was kind of what I suspected after I heard he had passed.

I didn’t know it made you hang yourself. Is there anything it can’t do?

Well, theres nothing that covid supposedly cant do so having a therapy that can keep up with it is important.

Blaming every celebrity death on a vaccine gets really silly after a while.

Why, do you think the mRNA experimental gene therapy side effeccts are over? You like being lied to about something that likely kills you? Guess that is just silly and should be mocked 24/7 so nobody asks the obvious questions.

Do you still believe Ivermectin is poisonous too?

When you start reading the article instead of the titles and the article says he died from the shot then I’ll give you credibility. Until then, you are a one member band.

#14 It can be possible 4 things like suicide or plane or helicopter crash or drug overdose or the deadly vaccine they were forced to take.
