'''William Archibald "Bill" Paxton''' was an American actor/director who was well known for his wisecracking action roles in such films as ''[[Aliens]]'' and ''[[Predator 2]]''. ''[[Aliens]]'' was one of Paxton's four feature film collaborations with director [[James Cameron]] (the others being ''[[The Terminator]]'', ''[[True Lies]]'' and ''[[Titanic]]''). Paxton bears the distinction of being one of only two actors whose characters have been killed by an Alien (in ''[[Aliens]]''), a Predator (in ''[[Predator 2]]''), and the Terminator (''[[The Terminator]]'' - he's one of the punks in the beginning that the Terminator killed to get clothes). The other actor would be [[Lance Henriksen]] (though he had to wait until 2004's ''[[Alien vs. Predator]]'' to be killed by a Predator, and the android technically wasn't killed by the queen as Ripley deactivated him in ''[[Alien³]]''.) In the following decades, Paxton continued to appear in various films such as ''[[Trespass]]'', ''[[One False Move]]'', ''[[Tombstone]]'', ''[[A Simple Plan]]'', and ''[[Edge of Tomorrow]]'' and directed several features, including 2001's ''Frailty''. He also appeared in several television series, including ''[[Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. - Season 1|Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.]]'', ''Big Love'', and ''[[Training Day (2017 TV Series)|Training Day]]''. He passed away on February 26th, 2017, due to complications from surgery. | |||
