I have known Chris and Sean since 1985 and they loved and supported each other throughout that entire time. Yes, Sean at one time, tried "tough love" in an attempt to get Chris into a rehab program but unfortunately the "fighter" in Chris just made him rebel even more. He was my son's Godfather and my best friend. We have lived together, trained together, traveled the world together, laughed, cried, and celebrated together. He had a heart of Gold and I will never have a better friend. RIP
I think Chris was a far better actor than his bro Sean, he seemed like a nice guy too who you could have a good time with, also, unlike his brother who takes himself too seriously. RIP Chris.
I just finished watching Rush Hour one and i was like..Whats the name of this guy? Ive seen him on other movies..then i check at the end of the movie right on the Cast list and learn that his name is Chris Penn..So i come to youtube to see what his latest movies were and i happen to find out that he DIED! Whoa, thats very sad :-(. Great job on the video by the way. May his soul R.I.P
does anyone know the name of the movie he was in back in the 90's that was based on a fighting game? It was very extreme with blood and special moves like a live action cartoon
@MeBenHalpin ...it's called Fist of The North Star and it was based on a popular anime series...you can watch the entire thing on youtube just broken up into parts
@ChronicSmoker91 Although Penn had used multiple drugs in the past, an autopsy performed by a Los Angeles County medical examiner revealed the primary cause of death was "nonspecific cardiomyopathy" (heart disease), with the prescription drug promethazine with codeine and an enlarged heart being possible contributing circumstances. Sean Penn has said publicly in a TV interview on Larry King Live that his brother probably died because of his weight.
jesus i had no idea the man was even dead till like 20min ago (see what happens when you dont watch the news),,nice guy good actor feel bad for sean losing hes younger brother we,ll miss u
if you're going to write something disrespectful it gets deleted, then you get blocked. If you write it again, I report you to youtube. Simple. Ignorance kills brain cells.
@zippitydoowop Thanks for posting, I really likes this guy. Don't pay too much attention to AWESOME90002, this Swedish punk makes a habit of insulting people. Peace to you all.
He may have waned in his later years, but I'll always remember his role as "Travis Brickley" in the "Best of the Best" movies. Great martial arts movies, and to be honest, that's the only reason I remember his face. I know he was in a lot more than that, but in my childhood, I loved martial arts movies, and that's the first thing I remember seeing him in. He will be missed.
A great clip, the song was perfectly chosen, imagine if Sean Penn watch this he'll cry a week, because "he ain't heavy he is my brother" and in my words he was my brother too, I'll miss him to much, great actor all heart. R.I.P
I was reading his autopsy report the other day on the net, this dude had every freakin` illegal drug known in his system. I mean WTF was his deal? Marijuana, cocaine, morphine (which is heroin before it enters the blood stream), meth, codeine, ephedrin, diazepam (which is Valium) ethanol... Call me crazy but any dude that does that much sh*t all at the same time is suicidal, I mean seriously.
I met him on the set of Made in USA. A non hit film about 2 thugs from Centralia, PA. Coal mine fire town. I live 5 minutes from. It was around 1986. He was cool, but, STONED@!! Sad that this happend... RIP CHRIS.
why you keep beatin him for ? You keep beatin him, he will tell you he started the chicago fuckin fire - that does'nt necessarilly make it fuckin so !
ya man......he some great movies....but resevoir dogs hadda b his best.....
stop pointin that fuckin gun at my dad !
loved in 86' when he was in that movie with his brother and christopher walken i cant think of the fuckin name of it ...but it was great and based on a true story that happened in maryland or pennsylavania....
He did NOT die of Cusing's you fuck! He died of obesity and drugs. His bro Sean Penn confirmed this on Larry King. He was a major drug user and the cocaine damaged his heard just like Andy Gibb. He was REALLY CUTE in Footloose and All the Right Moves. Sarah Jessica Parker lost her virginity to him during the making of Footloose. SAD. He was so thin and talented. I've NEVER seen anyone's appearance change this drastically ever. He gained 200 pounds after Footloose!
Chris died from Cushing's Disease. He never let him self go. He was beautiful and talented. Too many die everyday this way it's got to STOP! Thanks for the pics. BTW it's hereditary so if someone in your family died this horrible way please get checked every year.
i've always liked Chris' acting & presence. still can't believe he's gone. he had this charisma about him - laidback, easygoing, humorous and an underlining hint of toughness about him.
Léo and Eilen Penn one make 3 son Michael, Sean and Chris... Two young person, Sean and Chris, are an actor. Chris was surely in the shade of Sean, but that it not prevented from being Chris, and not the brother has Sean... There left too early... He will remain immortal, thanks to ' Reservoit dogs' and has ' At closed range' RIP Christopher Penn
Chris was always an overlooked actor. I became a fan since his days of Resevior Dogs...great film. Chris...I still enjoy watching all your films...miss ya bud.
This is really great made me cry I miss Chris every day and this is very nice, Chris was my best friend, I wjsh he didn't have to leave so soon he is sorly missed and life is not the same without him, Thank you for this video,he lives on in are hearts we all know what a great actor he was,but he was also the best friend you could ever have. the best one I ever had. I miss him and love him always.
Chris was a force. Totally underrated. Intense. That black ElDorado flying thru town @ 3:00 am. He lived life full-tilt. The best joke-teller I ever heard...
chris was and will be one of my favorite actors he always brought something interesting to the films he was in. It was a huge loss for the film industry
