Al Pacino, Francis Ford Coppola, Robert Duvall, and More Mourn James Caan
Hollywood paid tribute to the legendary James Caan following news of his death at the age of 82 on July 7, with many of Caan’s co-stars and friends sharing remembrances of the late actor. Al Pacino, who starred in the Godfather films with Caan, said in a statement, “Jimmy was my fictional brother and my lifelong friend. It’s hard to believe that he won’t be in the world anymore because he was so alive and daring. A great actor, a brilliant director and my dear friend. I’m gonna miss him.” Fellow co-star Robert De Niro added, “I’m very, very sad to hear about Jimmy’s passing.” Francis Ford Coppola, a frequent collaborator of Caan’s, told Deadline, “Jimmy was someone who stretched through my life longer and closer than any motion picture figure I’ve ever known. From those earlier times working together on The Rain People, and throughout all the milestones of my life, his films and the many great roles he played will never be forgotten. He will always be my old friend from Sunnyside, my collaborator, and one of the funniest people I’ve ever known.” Caan’s Godfather castmate Robert Duvall shared his grief with KUSI News. “I’ve known Jimmy Caan for decades,” he said over the phone. “We always had a lot of fun together … but at the base of it all, he wanted to be accepted as an actor. That was his calling, and he was a very special talent as an actor and a terrific friend.” See more tributes to Caan below.
What a terrible and tragic loss. Jimmy was not just a great actor with total commitment and a venturesome spirit, but he had a vitality in the core of his being that drove everything from his art and friendship to athletics and very good times. pic.twitter.com/72b06VJGIi

James Caan. Loved him very much. Always wanted to be like him. So happy I got to know him. Never ever stopped laughing when I was around that man. His movies were best of the best. We all will miss him terribly. Thinking of his family and sending my love. pic.twitter.com/a0q8rCP1Yl

Very sorry to hear about the passing of James Caan, who gave an Oscar-worthy performance as Paul Sheldon in Rob Reiner’s exceptional film version of MISERY.

James Caan was a true delight. My favorite memory of him was shooting part of a montage for the end of Elf and he started playing piano — he played beautifully — I sang and he played and I was just astonished by his talent! pic.twitter.com/dnzryK81Fd

RIP James Caan. Shocked. Was lucky enough, after a lifetime of loving his work, to get to work with him and I loved him as a person even more. Funny, warm, self-deprecating, and effortlessly talented. They say never meet your heroes, but he proved that to be very very wrong

James Caan was an icon – a legend. He inspired everyone who has ever been in front of a camera. I was lucky to work with him and see his talent and his fantastic sense of humor firsthand. He was a great training partner in the gym and a true friend, and I’ll miss him.

I once passed James Caan in the commissary at Paramount Pictures. He looked me over in my Data makeup and uniform and uttered just one word, “Working?” Honored. RIP

He was great in the film his enormous physicality literally tied down –
I think he’s s physicality and body language -his walk as sonny must be the most imitated walk in history – https://t.co/nOmf4lYs9a— John Cusack (@johncusack) July 8, 2022
Well, this just sucks about James Caan. I was lucky enough to work with him & be friends. Always a fun guy to be around. He was always supportive of my career. He even did a cameo in my tv special and got Robert Duvall to be in it. A highlight of my career. God bless James Caan.

Sad to hear of James Caan’s passing…it was an honor and pleasure to know and work with a true legend like Jimmy. My deepest condolences to his family and loved ones. RIP. ?

James Caan always had the funniest stories. Once he told me Coppola had the habit of grabbing food off his plate & eating it, so one day he made a sandwich with very hot jalapeños between two pieces of buttered bread, & waited outside Coppola’s airstream…

We were lucky enough to work with James Caan on Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. He brought a pathos and authenticity to the role of Tim Lockwood that held the film together. RIP to a legend pic.twitter.com/tmk3JdOgE3

The great James Caan left us today. If you’ve never seen his performance in Brian’s Song, try to find it. One of the great tearjerkers. A great body of work, sir. Good journey to you. #RIPJamesCaan
