Summary
Sam Neill, the legendary actor who brought down velociraptors and played piano with soul, has died at 78 after a battle with rare lymphoma. From his breakout roles in “Dead Calm” and “My Brilliant Career” to becoming a global icon as Alan Grant in “Jurassic Park,” Neill’s career spanned decades and genres. A beloved New Zealander who turned his farm into a vineyard, he shared his life’s joys and struggles with honesty, including his 2023 cancer diagnosis and the gratitude it inspired. His memoir, “Did I Ever Tell You This?”, was released last year. A knighted film legend, he leaves behind four children and eight grandchildren — and a legacy that touched millions.
