Just days before the 97th Academy Awards, Hollywood is mourning the loss of film legend Gene Hackman. Kevin Costner, who worked with the late actor on No Way Out and Wyatt Earp, remembered the small details of how the little things Hackman did impacted his life and career. In an Instagram post with a clip from a previous interview, Costner wrote, “Gene Hackman was my favorite actor, and I was lucky enough to work with him more than once. Sharing a story that I told years ago with @richeisen—a moment with Gene that showed me that his generosity and vulnerability ran even deeper than his well of talent. This moment was probably small for him, but really huge for me.”
