James Rebhorn, a character actor who made a career in both films and television, has sadly passed away at the age of just 65 years young.
Recently known for his role on the hit television series Homeland as the father of Claire Dane’s character, James Rebhorn had a career that spanned five decades. Some of his highlights include parts in hit films such as Scent of a Woman, Independence Day, Meet the Parents, The Game and The Talented Mr Ripley. 
Rebhorn, who was born on September 1st 1948, died today at his home in New Jersey.
The following is from the LA Times.
“Rebhorn largely epitomized the “that guy” brand of character actor, the kind whom audiences recognize by face and voice, if perhaps not by name. On Twitter, actor Tom Arnold said, “you didn’t know him but trust me, you knew him.” Comedian Patton Oswalt posted “On behalf of all film buffs, we took for granted you’d always be there & be great, ’cause you always were.”
Thank you for the memories James Rebhorn. Rest in Peace.
