• Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002) [Jim Byrd]: Fatally wounded (off-screen) by a hitman sent by Julia Roberts; he bleeds to death some time later while talking to Sam Rockwell by Sam's swimming pool.

• Syriana (2005) [Bob Barnes]: Killed in an explosion, along with Alexander Siddig, his family and bodyguards in an assassination when a missile strikes Alexander's car convoy while George is standing next to it (as Matt Damon looks on helplessly). (Thanks to Yannis)
