Hollywood actor Ray Liotta, who impressed the audience with his performance as Henry Hill in the 1990 Martin Scorsese crime classic ‘Goodfellas’ died at the age of 67. The actor died in his sleep in the Dominican Republic, where he was shooting the film ‘Dangerous Waters’, reports ‘Deadline’.
Liotta is survived by his daughter, Karsen. He was engaged to be married to Jacy Nittolo and, according to ‘Deadline’, his career had lately been seeing a major revival.

He finished the Elizabeth Banks-directed ‘Cocaine Bear’ and was due to star in the Working Title film ‘The Substance’ opposite Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley.
‘Deadline’ reports that Liotta was also recently set to executive produce the A&E docu-series ‘Five Families’, about the dramatic rise and fall of the New York’s mafia’s Genovese, Gambino, Bonnano, Colombo and Lucchese families.
Though better known for his big-screen roles, Liotta also starred with Taron Egerton in the Apple TV+ series ‘Black Bird’, recurred on Prime Video’s ‘Hanna’, fronted the 2006 CBS crime drama ‘Smith’ and starred opposite Jennifer Lopez in the 2016-18 NBC police drama ‘Shades of Blue’.
