I don't recognize the skyline but maybe Sam Neill has recently been in Australia for a visit? Given there are cockatoos roaming free. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Trivia: Nigel John Dermot Neill known as Sam Neill was born in Omagh, Northern Ireland, on 14 September 1947.

“When I started in films, it never really occurred to me that I could make a career out of acting.” You did, and we loved you for it. RIP Sir Nigel John Dermot "Sam" Neill (14 September 1947 – 13 July 2026), New Zealand actor, vintner, humanitarian and all-round top bloke.

Dead Calm 🎩🪄Remembering the great Sam Neill. That ending had me on the edge of my seat. This was the first film where I discovered his incredible talent, and he never disappointed after that. Rest in Peace, Sam Neill (1947–2026). You'll never be forgotten. #SamNeill

The Hunt for Red October made me fall in love with Cinema. It’s not just one of my favorite Sam Neill performances- it’s one of my personal favorite films. If this film was on TNT or TBS on the weekend, I was watching. It’s films like this that made Neill an inseparable part of my childhood. Love live Sam Neill.

Vale Sam Neill, one of NZ’s & the world’s finest actors. Jurassic Park, yes, but don’t forget ‘Event Horizon’! I bought a ticket knowing nothing of the movie & it blew my mind!😱😈 Sam’s brilliant performance was key in making this flick so memorable. RIP Sam Neill, bloody legend

RIP Sam Neill (1947-2026) Sam Neill on why "The Piano" (1993) is an important movie in Cinema history: "I don’t think I can overestimate how important 'The Piano' (1993) is for me in hindsight. It sits on my funny old CV like a medal on my chest. It wasn’t my film. It was Jane Campion's. I wasn’t the star of the film. That was Holly Hunter. But there is honour to be found in the second fiddle. Or fourth. No one notices you much, you don’t get nominated for things. But you served. I was there in an important feminist film. I was there on the front line in an important New Zealand film. Neither of these labels does the film justice. It’s a work of art. And look, that tiny little figure in the fabric— see down there on the right—that’s me. It’s a film that will always have a place in cinema history. And I served in it." ("Did I Ever Tell You This: A Memoir", Sam Neill, 2023)

Late Sam Neill revealed he names his farm animals after celebrity friends as an insurance policy so he won't eat them. "I name a lot of my animals as an insurance policy. Because if you name a chicken Meryl Streep, in all fairness, you can't eat Meryl Streep." "Graham Norton: Now, you brought us some pictures of your animals. So who are these? I mean, not people, they're sheep." "Sam Neill: Well, that's Susan Sarandon and Anjelica Huston. And they adore me." "Graham Norton: And now who are these?" "Sam Neill: Oh, well, that's Helena Bonham Carter with the horns. She's a real cow. And the little feller on the left is Graham Norton." "Graham Norton: Is that really Graham Norton?" "Sam Neill: Yeah, it's brand new. And Helena Bonham Carter is Graham Norton's mother." "Sam Neill: And that's Jimmy Nesbitt, who is Graham Norton's father."

It’s sad news that Sam Neill has passed away. Sam was a genre-crossing, multifaceted actor, just as at home in independent films like The Dish as in Hollywood blockbusters like Jurassic Park. When I heard today, my first thought was The Hunt for Red October. He’ll be missed.

Sam Neill might have been cancer-free but friends say he couldn't shake pneumonia, as tributes flowed for the acting legend. He's being remembered not just in Hollywood but among the everyday Australians he learned to know and play so well.

It’s hard to pick a favorite Sam Neill movie, but I suppose for me it’s Event Horizon (though Lord knows it’s a very disturbing film to get through). But he was good in everything; RIP

I understand that Sam Neill had such a bountiful amount of memorable roles but to us in our Jurassic park community, he was our Alan Grant 💙 A lil video to celebrate Alan and the legacy that Sam gave as 'The dinosaur man'... Rest easy

The robot Andrew Martin in Bicentennial Man (1999) was played by the legendary Robin Williams. Before his passing, Sam Neill said Williams was "irresistibly, outrageously, irrepressibly, gigantically funny" on set, yet "the saddest person I ever met." In the scenes where Andrew the robot tells jokes to the family, all of Williams' jokes were completely unscripted. Sam Neill and his co-stars' on-screen reactions to those jokes were genuine. Neill recalled that the warmth between their characters reflected their real-life trailer conversations, where Williams seemed "the loneliest man on a lonely planet" and "inconsolably solitary."

The first movie I ever saw Sam Neill in was The Dead Calm, with Nicole Kidman and Billy Zane. He was excellent. I raised my kids watching the Jurassic Park movies. We were Jurassic junkies. 💯 The one thing the last movie, Jurassic World- Dominion, definitely got right, was bringing Dr. Alan Grant (Sam Neill) and Dr. Ellie Sattler (Laura Dern) together romantically and sending them off together. That was a perfect ending.❤️ They definitely had an on screen attraction and tension. That ending made it all the worthwhile. Thank you for the memories. You were a class act and a gentleman. Your career was unvarnished and that is a rarity in Hollywood. RIP Sam. 🥹

💔 Sad news this morning: Jurassic Park star Sam Neill has tragically passed away at the age of 78. To me, this remains one of my all-time favourite movies, a true classic and a massive part of my childhood. Few films capture that sense of wonder quite like it. And it boasts what is arguably the greatest movie theme ever written. In memory of Sam (and the unforgettable Dr. Alan Grant), here is the legendary John Williams conducting the Vienna Philharmonic in a beautiful live performance of the Jurassic Park theme. Rest in peace, Sam Neill. Thank you for the magic. 🦕🎶

With Omen III, Possession, and In the Mouth of Madness, Sam Neill became an unlikely horror icon, and then there's Event Horizon. I know it has issues, but the cast is fantastic, and the whole “Hellraiser in space” vibe works for me. Fishburne’s final reaction here is priceless.

RIP Sir Sam Neill. For his unforgettable role as Chief Inspector Chester Campbell in Peaky Blinders, Neill had to relearn the Belfast accent he’d lost after decades in New Zealand, even turning to Liam Neeson and James Nesbitt for help. Ironically, his accent became so authentic that producers asked him to tone it down because international audiences struggled to understand it. A remarkable actor who left an unforgettable mark on every role he played.
