“TRUE ROMANCE, TOP GUN” DIRECTOR DEAD! Tony Scott Brother Of Ridley, Jumps From California Bridge

Very sad news as Tony Scott, director of “Top Gun” (one of Tom Cruise’s best films,) and many other top films, has died from an apparent suicide.

Deadline Hollywood’s legend NIKKI FINKE reports:

A source close to the Scott family just confirmed to Deadline that famed movie director and TV producer Tony Scott “has passed away. We ask that the family’s privacy be respected at this time.” Hollywood is shocked by this tragic news that he committed suicide because British-born Scott was well-liked personally and professionally and had a lauded and thriving career. “He was the loveliest guy. Genuinely,” a family friend tells Deadline. “He was one of the good ones.” Scott was best known for classic action films like Top Gun, Days Of Thunder, Beverly Hills Cop II, True Romance, and Crimson Tide, and the most recent Unstoppable. He also is a credited producer on this summer’s Fox blockbuster Prometheus directed by his brother Ridley Scott.
