(KTLA) – Actor Harris Yulin, known for his roles in “Scarface,” “Training Day,” “Ozark,” and more has passed away. He was 87.

He passed away Tuesday of cardiac arrest in New York City, his family and manager, Sue Leibman, told The Hollywood Reporter.

Originally from Los Angeles, the actor studied at UCLA before making his New York theater debut in 1963 with “Next Time I’ll Sing to You.” Over his expansive five-decade career, he became a familiar face, appearing in more than 100 films and TV series. His notable performances include roles in “Ghostbusters II,” “Clear and Present Danger,” “The Hurricane,” and “Rush Hour 2.”

He appeared in the popular sitcom “Frasier,” which earned him a Primetime Emmy nomination for outstanding guest actor in a comedy series. 

Later in his career, he starred in “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt,” “Billions,” and “FBI: Most Wanted.”

According to Deadline, the actor was getting ready to start filming this week for the MGM+ series “American Classic,” starring alongside Kevin Kline and Laura Linney. Directed by Michael Hoffman, Yulin’s family shared that he was thrilled to work with Hoffman again, following their collaboration on the 2005 movie “Game 6.”

He is survived by his wife Kristen Lowman, son-in-law Ted Mineo, nephew Martin Crane, and godchildren Marco and Lara Greenberg. His daughter, actress Claire Lucido, sadly passed away in 2021.
