\nThe entertainment world is paying tribute to an iconic actor today. The legendary Christopher Plummer passed away at his home in Connecticut at the age of 91. Plummer is probably best-known for his performance as Captain Von Trapp<\/a> in The Sound of Music<\/em>, though there are plenty of more roles that gained him a lot of attention. He earned Academy Award nominations for The Last Station<\/em> and All the Money in the World<\/em>, before taking home a statue in 2012 for Beginners<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In addition to the aforementioned movies<\/a>, Christopher Plummer<\/em><\/strong>also starred in Knives Out<\/em>, A Beautiful Mind<\/em>, Malcolm X<\/em>, 12 Monkeys<\/em> and numerous others. Lou Pitt, Plummer’s manager of 46 years, says, “Chris was an extraordinary man who deeply loved and respected his profession with great old fashion manners, self-deprecating humor and the music of words.” You can read what else Pitt had to say about his friend below.

Dan Rather tweeted, “‘Blossom of snow, may you bloom and grow, bloom and grow forever.’ RIP Christopher Plummer. You lit up screen and stage over a lifetime of art. My thoughts are with your family and friends.” In addition to his big screen roles, Plummer was also active on the stage, where he often wrote.

\nStar Trek<\/em> actor George Takei tweeted, “The Sound of Music is a sad one today as Christopher Plummer has left us today.

Rest in eternal music, Captain Von Trapp.” Elijah Wood said, “So sad to hear that Christopher Plummer has passed. What a legend.” In addition to his Academy Award, Plummer was also honored with Tony awards, and Primetime Emmy awards. He was nominated for a Grammy in 1986 for E.T.A. Hoffmann\/Tchaikovsky: The Nutcracker, though he did not win.<\/p>\n

Actor Daniel Dae Kim tweeted also paid tribute to Christopher Plummer. He tweeted, “One of the many reasons to love Christopher Plummer. We watched The Sound Of Music<\/em> so much when I was a boy that he and the Von Trapps felt like family. Rest In Peace, legend.” Joseph Gordon-Levitt said, “Christopher Plummer… one of the greats,” and posted a heart emoji.

Christopher Plummer beguiled audiences across generations in memorable roles from Captain von Trapp in “The Sound of Music” to Harlan Thrombey in “Knives Out.” He worked steadily for 60+ years, winning a Best Supporting Actor Oscar in 2012 for “Beginners.” He will be missed. pic.twitter.com\/Mu6KRJTk7P<\/a><\/p>\n

Christopher Plummer. A legend. How many can say they gave great performances across 7 different decades? His roles are unforgettable – but a small piece of me will always remember seeing him first as Reverend Whirley in Dragnet when I was a kid. RIP to an icon. pic.twitter.com\/gH54nXgeTE<\/a><\/p>\n
