Julian Sands, who starred in movies including Warlock, Arachnophobia, and A Room with a View, is found dead after going missing on a hike in January.
The search for Arachnophobia and Warlock star Julian Sands has come to a tragic end. The English actor went missing on January 13 while hiking in the Mount Baldy region in the San Gabriel Mountains. After eight different search and rescue missions took place in the following months, human remains were discovered in the area on June 27.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, those remains have now been positively identified as Sands. The late actor would have been 65 years old, as the hike began fewer than two weeks after his birthday. The exact nature of his death is still being investigated by the San Bernardino Sheriff’s Department. SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Onscreen Legacy Julian Sands Leaves Behind Like many English actors, Sands was largely known in the U.S. as something of a character actor. Perhaps his most notable role in a Hollywood production was playing the notorious titular son of Satan in 1989's Warlock, in which he starred opposite Lori Singer and Richard E. Grant.
Sands also held roles on American television, playing Liam Strom on Netflix's What/If and Jor-El on Smallville, among many other characters. However, the star had a chance to show off his range even more in international productions and Hollywood dramas. This includes his breakout role as George Emerson in the 1985 James Ivory production A Room with a View as well as starring in David Cronenberg's Naked Lunch, The Killing Fields, Leaving Las Vegas, and Boxing Helena.
