Hollywood lost a legend today; Kirk Douglas has died at age 103. SOURCE

Kirk was most famously known for his starring role in “Spartacus” and other greats like “20000 Leagues Under the Sea “and “Seven Days in May”.

Kirk was also nominated 3 times for an Oscar and was presented with an Honorary one in 1996.

Father to one of the most famous sons in Hollywood; Micheal Douglas, who penned a tribute to his father today:

It is with tremendous sadness that my brothers and I announce that Kirk Douglas left us today at the age of 103. To the world, he was a legend, an actor from the golden age of movies who lived well into his golden years, a humanitarian whose commitment to justice and the causes he believed in setting a standard for all of us to aspire to.

But to me and my brothers Joel and Peter he was simply Dad, to Catherine, a wonderful father-in-law, to his grandchildren and great-grandchild their loving grandfather, and to his wife Anne, a wonderful husband.

Kirk’s life was well-lived, and he leaves a legacy in film that will endure for generations to come and a history as a renowned philanthropist who worked to aid the public and bring peace to the planet.

Let me end with the words I told him on his last birthday and which will always remain true. Dad- I love you so much and I am so proud to be your son. SOURCE

RIP to a legend
