It's a huge shame, as he requires two carers now, but he does sound as though he's still sharp witted as ever, and is that thankful he has kept his voice after the stroke.

‘Risky is the best way to be’: Tim Curry on sexuality, surviving a stroke – and 50 years of stardom https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/ng-interactive/2025/oct/14/risky-is-the-best-way-to-be-tim-curry-sexuality-surviving-stroke-50-years-stardom

It certainly sucks, but he was in his late 60's when it happened. He's almost 80 now.

He's had a great and full life, and he has great care; most people don't get either of those things. Aging sucks.

It's hard to fully enjoy someone's work or art knowing what tragedy has befallen them since that time. It's just sad. Among others, I always enjoy Clue.

This post is how I found out. That's heartbreaking. The frailty of the human form is a cosmic crime.

I only learned this recently too watching the Rocky Horror cast reunion.

Sad nobody mentioned IT. He played penny wise!

Yeah, Its a damn shame. I always liked his performances. He has done only a few parts since then. I remember him being a judge in a sitcom but I can't remember the shows name.

I had no idea. Wow

I remember hearing that he auditioned for the role of Joker in Tim Burton's Batman (Jack Nicholson) and again for the Animated series (Mark Hamil). Turned down both times for either too scary or intense.
