It was recently announced that Scott L. Schwartz, the professional wrestling star known for his role as "Bruiser" in the Ocean's Eleven film series, passed away on November 26, 2024, at the age of 65. Following reports that the star had died peacefully at his home in Covington, Louisiana, tributes paid to him, including his former Ocean’s Eleven costar George Clooney.
Clooney shared his personal thoughts on social media, saying in a statement:
“I’m sorry to hear that Scott is gone. We did three films together and I’ve never been so gently punched. He was a gentle soul and he will be dearly missed.”
Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Schwartz began his career in professional wrestling, but like several other showmen of the ring, his imposing size made him just as good a fit for some tough roles in Hollywood as his career in the world of wrestling as "Giant David" and "The Israeli Commando Joshua Ben-Gurion.
