Film Deaths
- The Young Runaways (1968) [Terry]: Killed in a car accident after stealing a car.
- Dillinger (1973) [Baby Face Nelson]: Machine-gunned by a cop (whom he manages to kill as well).
- The Goodbye Girl (1977) [Elliott Garfield]: In the play-within-the-film of "Richard III", he is stabbed dead. (Elliott survives in reality obviously).
- Whose Life Is It Anyway? (1981) [Ken Harrison]: After being left a quadriplegic in a car wreck, Richard expresses his desire to go home and be taken off life support. While the ending is ambiguous as to what happens to him when he leaves the hospital, it's strongly implied that his wish will be granted.
- Always (1989) [Pete Sandich]: Killed in a plane crash (when his plane catches fire and explodes) after saving John Goodman's life; he appears as a guardian angel throughout the rest of the film before finally moving on to Heaven.
- Who is Cletis Tout? (2001) [Micah Tobias]: Shot by hitmen; he dies of his wounds shortly afterwards talking to Christian Slater.
- Leaves of Grass (2009) [Pug Rothbaum]: Stabbed/cut down the torso by Edward Norton (as “Brady”) in a fight in Richard's office.
- Piranha 3D (2010) [Matt Boyd]: Devoured by piranha after he falls off his boat during a whirlpool brought along in an earthquake (which, in turn, releases hundreds of piranha into the area). His mutilated body is discovered washed up on the shore by Elisabeth Shue and Ving Rhames.
- RED (2010) [Alexander Dunning]: Either Suffocates, when Bruce Willis strikes his neck hard or dies when John Malkovich shoots him in the head when he's on the ground. (unclear which, but it's likely he died from the punch as he appears to suffocate).
- Asher (2018) [Avi]: Strangled to death by Ron Perlman.
TV Deaths
- Victory at Entebbe (1976) [Col. Yonatan ‘Yonni’ Netanyahu]: Shot by a sniper, while rescuing the hostages.

Notes: it is NOT true that a scene was filmed for Jaws where his character "Matt Hooper" gets eaten. His character Fagin in the Oliver Twist 1997 TV film doesn't get hung.
