‘Mad Max’ actor Vincent Gil has died. His co-star and friend Paul Johnstone shared the news on Facebook.
“Sadly, it is true … Vince Gil has left us,” wrote Johnstone. “He’s been very frail for quite some time and mercifully no longer needs to be constrained by his mortal form.”
“Vince was remarkable,” he wrote.
On an occasion where they attended a convention during his sickness , he wrote , “When I’d glance at him and be worried about his ability to keep going, he’d shrug off any concerns and showed that he had a lot more stamina than many of we much younger men.”
“Rest well old friend – we will remember you when we look at the night sky,” Johnstone wrote, a reference to their time together in ‘Mad Max’
Our thoughts are with his family and friends during this difficult time.
