Tom Skerritt, actor in ‘Alien’ and ‘Top Gun’, dies at 93

Tom Skerritt Hollywood Alien Top Gun Emmy Award

American actor Tom Skerritt has died at the age of 93 from natural causes. His family confirmed the news, noting that while the world knew him for his remarkable acting career, they knew him for his humor, wisdom, and generosity.

Skerritt enjoyed a career spanning over six decades, with iconic roles in major films such as ‘Alien’, where he played Captain Dallas, and ‘Top Gun’, where he portrayed flight instructor Mike ‘Viper’ Metcalf. He also appeared in notable productions including ‘M*A*S*H’, ‘Steel Magnolias’, ‘A River Runs Through It’, and ‘Contact’.

On television, Skerritt was highly acclaimed for his role as Sheriff Jimmy Brock in ‘Picket Fences’, a performance that earned him an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series in 1993.

Beyond acting, Skerritt was a veteran who served in the United States Air Force. He was also dedicated to philanthropy, co-founding the Red Badge Project to help veterans express their experiences through storytelling and supporting emerging filmmakers through TheFilmSchool in Seattle.
