One of a very select group of people to ever go from being a linebacker for the Raiders to having an arm sliced off by a Predator, Carl Weathers cut his name into the rockface of bro cinema. <\/p>\n

In the \u201870s, he fought Rocky Balboa a couple of times, with mixed results. In the \u201880s, he made friends with Balboa, turning his aggression toward the Predator instead. By the \u201890s, he\u2019d become a mentor to an Adam Sandler character who was learning how to yell at people less \u2013 one of pop culture\u2019s greatest honors at the time. He even staked out one of the good spots in the Star Wars <\/em>universe, playing mover and shaker Greef Karga on The Mandalorian<\/em> opposite Pedro Pascal and some nice denim<\/a>. All told, his acting career stretched across just over 50 years, with roles running the gamut from featured extra work to caricatured versions of himself.<\/p>\n

Has Carl Weathers’ cause of death been announced?<\/h2>\n

On Feb. 2, 2024, Weathers\u2019 family announced via social media that the beloved actor had passed away the previous day at age 76. Neither the cause of death nor Weathers\u2019 location when he died was revealed apart from the revelation that the Arrested Development <\/em>actor had \u201cdied peacefully in his sleep.\u201d No further explanation was given at the time, and Weathers had never spoken publicly about any ongoing health problems, with the exception of a painful multi-year process of healing from two broken vertebrae, damaged while filming a stunt for Happy Gilmore.<\/em><\/p>\n

Just over a week later, on February 10, The Blast<\/a> <\/em>obtained a copy of Weathers’ death certificate, confirming that the actor had died as a result of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease \u2014 plaque buildup in the arteries not uncommon in people who suffer from cardiovascular disease. His passing, which was designated “natural,” occurred in his Venice, California home.<\/p>\n

Messages of love and remembrance from some of the biggest names in Hollywood immediately poured in. Arnold Schwarzenegger remembered his co-star as \u201ca fantastic actor, and a great person,\u201d and claimed that Predator <\/em>would not have been possible without him. <\/p>\n

Carl Weathers will always be a legend. An extraordinary athlete, a fantastic actor, and a great person. We couldn\u2019t have made Predator without him. And we certainly wouldn\u2019t have had such a wonderful time making it. pic.twitter.com\/q4CWVVeyTK<\/a><\/p>\n
