Marcus D’Amico, the London-based actor best known for appearing in the original “Tales of the City” miniseries in 1993, has died at the age of 55.
His sister, Melissa D’Amico, shared the news of his death on Instagram last week. “Not only have I lost my beautiful brother but the world has lost an incredibly talented actor and director. Words cannot express how much I miss him,” Melissa wrote in a post shared to the account associated with her talent agency.
In an interview with Queerty, she confirmed that he died on Wednesday, Dec. 16 at his home in Oxfordshire, England.
“Marcus was warm and funny with a big heart,” she told the site. “He was talented and creative, a good singer and dancer as well as actor, writer, and director. He lived in London and LA and has many friends in both countries.”

Applied Arts FX Studio, the special makeup effects team working on the upcoming Resident Evil reboot, have shared an image from behind the scenes that demonstrates how committed the production is to making this movie with the fans in mind. Showing off a t-shirt that was given out to the production team upon completion, the image gives us our first glimpse at one of the countless undead that will torment our heroes.
" That's a wrap on Resident Evil, and what a fun Re inspired shirt the production handed out to everyone. A tough shoot, almost entirely on location, during [these] times, and generally about 17-18 hour days on set for our team, but we managed to pull together some cool work. Huge thanks to the entire team who contributed. @damalto @neilmorrill451 @nomad11 @michaelalucard @hunter_fx @the_whitneyb @markwotton as well as Kayla Dobilas, Kyra Hope, Corinne de Berry @adrianmakesfaces @malloryreeveswigs @biancaappicemakeup @kelly.

“We’re still people, aren’t we?” Anna Madrigal (Olympia Dukakis) asks at the beginning of the new installment of “Tales of the City. “Flawed, narcissistic… and doing our best.”
That’s as good a summation as any of the first 2019 episode of one of the most surprisingly resilient TV brands out there. Based on the writing of novelist and urban chronicler Armistead Maupin, “Tales of the City,” about a community of misfits finding one another in San Francisco, began its televised life as a 1993 miniseries; further installments arrived in 1998 and 2001. Eighteen years later, the show is back on Netflix, arriving in June after a premiere episode that screened, fittingly, at the San Francisco Film Festival April 10.
The series’s interesting trick is, now as it was then, capturing the action through the eyes of an outsider. Dukakis’s Anna Madrigal has the most potent wisdom, insight, and lived experience about life on the margins,...
