The family of the actor, who played the role of Sergeant Horvath in Steven Spielberg’s 1998 film Saving Private Ryan, is determining a course of action and will issue a statement indicating their choice when it is made.

“We are asking for privacy for his family during this difficult time and want to thank the hundreds of messages of prayer and support that have been received,” Lago said. “This has been a difficult time for them.”

Lago said Sizemore, also known for appearing in movies like Natural Born Killers, True Romance and Heat, in the midst of a turbulent personal life, suffered an aneurysm following a stroke on February 18 at his Los Angeles home.

TMZ first broke the news of Sizemore’s condition. DailyMail.com has reached out for comment from his representative, who has not yet responded.

Sizemore’s most recent role was in a new independent sci-fi film, Impuratus, playing a police detective forced to believe in the supernatural after witnessing the deathbed confession of a Civil War veteran.

The actor’s career has been plagued with scandals, as he battled drug addiction and had several run-ins with the law. He has been arrested for driving under the influence, domestic violence and possession of a controlled substance.

In 2013, Sizemore released a tell-all book recounting his affair with Elizabeth Hurley. He paints the actress, then Hugh Grant’s girlfriend, as a seductress he fell in love with on the set of 1992’s Passenger 57. He was later married to actress Maeve Quinian from 1996 to 1999.

Sizemore’s new film is expected to open next month, but the first public screening will take place in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, near where it was filmed.

speaking to nerd age About his most recent project, Sizemore said he signed on because he “enjoyed the script” and it’s an “excellent leading part.”

“It was a period of peace, which was interesting, and I really like the people who were involved,” Sizemore said of the film, which also stars John Quigley, Robert Miano and Lew Temple.

He added that he saw a ‘very early cut, and I was blown away.

“The quality was amazing, the acting (including some of my own of course) but seriously everyone was outstanding and the cinematography was excellent,” Sizemore said, adding that “I can’t wait to see the final version with all the music.” . ‘

When asked about his 30-year career, Sizemore attributed his success to his “passion for the job.”

“I’ve always liked movies,” he said. “That’s why I started doing this, and after all these years I still love the movies.”

He noted that the industry has changed over the years, “so I think it’s just about having a real passion for stories and my nascent curiosity.”

Added Sizemore, “I think I have a second act coming up and I need to start doing more dramatic roles and move away from bad guys, military and cop roles.”

Sizemore was born in Detroit, Michigan, where her mother was a staff member for the ombudsman and her father worked as a lawyer and professor of philosophy.

His early roles included appearances in Oliver Stone’s Born on the Four of July in 1989, as well as Point Break and Natural Born Killers.

He also starred in the independent drama Love is Like That in 1993 with actress-model Pamela Gidley and had a supporting role in Kevin Costner’s Wyatt Earp as Bat Masterson in 1994. For his work on Heart and Souls in 1993, Sizemore was nominated for an Award Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor.

From there, he had a succession of well-received supporting roles, including his portrayal of Michael Cherito in the 1995 heist film Heat. His biggest success was playing Sgt. Mike Harvath in Saving Private Ryan in 1999, the same year that he got his first major leading role as Detective Vincent D’Agosta in The Hallows.

In the early 2000s, Sizemore appeared in action films such as Pearl Harbor, starring Ben Affleck, and Ridley Scott’s Black Hawk Down.

But in 2005, the same year he became the father of twins, his career fell apart with the release of Tom Sizemore’s Sex Scandal, a sex tape of him with multiple women.

Two years later, VH1 aired a six-episode series titled Shooting Sizemore, which chronicled the actor’s struggles to reclaim his career while battling methamphetamine and heroin addiction.

The show also continued his efforts to appeal an assault charge for attacking his then-girlfriend, Heidi Fleiss. He had been convicted in 2003 of domestic violence and was sentenced to seven months in jail and four months in drug treatment for repeatedly failing drug tests while on probation.

In 2010, Sizemore appeared on the entertainment network again, as a patient on its third season of Celebrity Rehab.

And in November 2017, it was revealed that he had been kicked off the set of Born Killers in 2003 after being accused of molesting an 11-year-old boy on set.

He denied any wrongdoing and was allowed to return to the set after the Salt Lake County District Attorney’s Office decided not to pursue the case further citing “witness and evidence problems.”

By May 2018, the then-26-year-old actress filed a lawsuit against Sizemore, seeking at least $3 million. But on August 27, 2020, a Utah judge threw out the lawsuit.

However, the following year, Sizemore pleaded no contest to two domestic abuse charges for assaulting his girlfriend. He was sentenced to 36 months of probation, 30 days of community service and a one-year domestic violence program.

Sizemore has also filed for bankruptcy twice over the years, and is now worth an estimated $500,000.

Still, Sizemore’s career held steady with two of his films debuting at the Sundance Film Festival in 2008: Red and American Son.

He then saw a career resurgence when he was cast as a series regular on the USA Network show Shooter and later appeared in the Twin Peaks revival.

Most recently, in 2022, Sizemore won an IndiFEST Award and Accolade Competition Award for his supporting role in Electric Man.
