Deaths in Film

• Reno 911! Miami (2007) [Ethan the Drug Lord]: Shot in the chest by Patton Oswalt while Paul is talking to the police in his bedroom. (Played for comic effect.) (Thanks to BK and Tommy)

• Role Models (2008) [Danny Donahue]: Stabbed in the chest by Ken Jeong during a live-action role-playing game; he survives the movie in reality. (It's debatable whether this counts, but since it's been suggested, I'll regard it in the same vein as film-within-the-film "acted" deaths.) (Thanks to Tommy)

• Year One (2009) [Abel]: Beaten to death with a rock by his brother (David Cross), as Jack Black and Michael Cera look on in shock. (Played for comic effect.) (Thanks to Arben and Tommy)

Deaths in Television

• Robot Chicken: Book of Corrine (2006; animated) [Jasper the Douchebag Ghost]: Provides the voice of a ghost, having died some time before his appearance. (Thanks to Tommy)
• Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp: Electro/City (2015) [Andy Fleckner]: In the play-within-the-show, his character is executed by the electric chair; he survives the episode in reality.
