Refresh For Updates Costars and fans alike remembered Charles Grodin today as one of film’s funniest actors and TV’s most compelling personalities. “So sad to hear,” tweeted Steve Martin, who appeared alongside Grodin in the 1984 comedy The Lonely Guy. “One of the funniest people I ever met…”
“A brilliant comedy actor,” tweeted Albert Brooks. “I had the wonderful experience of working with him in my first feature ‘Real Life’ and he was amazing. Rest In Peace, Chuck.”
Grodin, who appeared in such films as Midnight Run, The Heartbreak Kid, Beethoven, The Great Muppet Caper and on TV as a favored guest of Johnny Carson and David Letterman, died today of bone marrow cancer at his home in Connecticut.
“I loved Charles Grodin so much,” tweeted Kathy Griffin. “He would bust my balls and give me so much shit in a way that left me no choice but to giggle with glee. Never mean spirited, just quick and brilliant.” Griffin posted a much-retweeted video clip of Grodin calling Fox News’ Sean Hannity a “fascist” to his face and asking whether the angry right-wing talk anchor had ever cohosted a show with Goebbels.
“God,” tweeted Billy Eichner, “I loved him.”
Deadline will add more reactions as they arrive. Check back for updates.

Charles Grodin made each film he was in extra special. I wrote several songs for films he had unforgettable roles in, including, It’s My Turn, Seems Like Old Times and Beethoven 2. Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones. xxc pic.twitter.com/ouGVeydqjv

In my opinion, the funniest performance ever given by an Actor in a Hollywood movie was Charles Grodin in “The Heartbreak Kid!” He once told me that “If you like that movie too much, I worry about you.” Clearly Charles spent too much time in therapy. Thank you for ALL the LAUGHS! pic.twitter.com/54RZsFHn4x

RIP Charles Grodin. I am begging you to watch “Midnight Run” if you’ve somehow never seen it

Just watched #MidnightRun last week. My God, he was so powerfully funny. Watch him investigate the “counterfeit” $20s. Or with DeNiro visiting his ex wife. Grodin steals the scene doing absolutely “nothing.” A comic genius. RIP https://t.co/SEiy1qf5cU

No better movie than Midnight Run and no one was ever better on a talk show than Charles Grodin. He was a great actor and a brilliant performer.
Rest In Peace Sir.— Eric Stonestreet (@ericstonestreet) May 18, 2021

RIP Charles Grodin. I had the honor of working with him on an episode of SVU, & he was wonderful to be around. What was especially impressive was hearing about the unheralded, extensive advocacy work he was doing on behalf of incarcerated women. He was thoroughly committed to it.
