Two-time Oscar-winning actor Gene Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, were found dead in their Santa Fe home. The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office responded to a 911 call made by a maintenance worker who found the couple deceased. There are no signs of foul play, but investigations are ongoing, including autopsies and toxicology reports. Authorities found no signs of forced entry or gas leaks in the home. Hackman, known for his roles in films like “The French Connection” and “Unforgiven,” was a respected actor in Hollywood. He met Arakawa in the 1980s, and the couple lived in a Southwestern-style ranch in Santa Fe. Hackman was rarely seen in the Hollywood social circuit and retired about 20 years ago. The couple had no children together but had adopted three German shepherds. News of their deaths comes just days before the Academy Awards. Hackman’s daughters and granddaughter released a statement expressing their sadness at the loss of their father. The investigation is ongoing, and a press conference is scheduled for further updates.
