LESLIE NIELSEN

Leslie Nielsen was a Canadian actor from the 1950s to 2010. He is best remembered for his starring role in Forbidden Planet, and although he was a serious actor for decades, he resurfaced in the 1980s with a comic turn in Airplane (and many other films after including Mel Brooks' Dracula: Dead and Loving It, Spy Hard, Wrongfully Accused, Scary Movies 3 and 4, and more). He passed away in 2010 at the age of 84. A joker until the end, his gravestone has the epitaph "Let 'er rip", which refers to his frequent pranks involving flatulence. Some of his other movies include: the Naked Gun series, Repossessed, and Creepshow
