Walter Olkewicz, the gentle giant who stole scenes in “Twin Peaks,” “Seinfeld” and “Grace Under Fire,” has died at 72.
The veteran character actor’s son Zak Olkewicz confirmed his passing Tuesday morning at his home in Los Angeles, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The co-star of Steven Spielberg’s cult film “1941” and Joel Schumacher’s hit John Grisham adaptation “The Client” died after a 20-year health battle that included a series of knee surgeries that caused infections, resulting in disabilities that forced him to miss out on roles, his son told the outlet.More Related News
