Robert Duvall, who starred in The Godfather and Apocalypse Now, has died at the age of 95, according to US news reports.
The Oscar-winner died "peacefully" at his home in Middleburg, Virginia on Sunday, according to a statement sent by his PR agency on behalf of his wife, Luciana.
"To the world, he was an Academy Award-winning actor, a director, a storyteller. To me, he was simply everything," she said in a statement.
"His passion for his craft was matched only by his deep love for characters, a great meal, and holding court."
