I met Tony at a horror con when I was probably 19 years old. I admit I got teary eyed talking to THE CANDYMAN. I was obsessed with that movie at the time, and he was so gracious and kind to me. He took the time to talk to me about movies and horror and even gave me the biggest hug I think I’ve ever received. To this day I love saying that I was hugged by the Candyman. Rest in power, Tony. You were the best. 🐝🪝
Wtf. No way man, this is way to soon…. Man i wish i could have gotten the opportunity to meet him.. Forever will be the only CANDYMAN. Rest in Paradise Tony 🕊️
RIP Tony Todd. I met him at MCM Comic Con in London about 15 years ago when he signed my DVD. He was generous with his time and a super cool dude. Night '90 is one of the first films that got me interested in filmmaking. He was the perfect choice for Ben, and of course Candyman is legendary. What a talented actor. It's a huge loss.
I had the honor of meeting the great gentleman in Nashville at a horror con! I am in shock he was a great,friendly,and nice guy! When I approached his booth I was star struck, and plus he was towering,lol. Loved all of his movies,tv,and theater performances. I even enjoyed him playing a pirate in a "Xena" episode! What a legend! RIP Mr. Todd.❤
That face, that voice, that classical stage presence. The man became a horror icon without a mask, without scary vfx, without makeup. He just became Candyman and embodied every character he portrayed. Such an amazing performer. He will be sorely missed.
Night of the Living Dead was the first movie I saw with Tony Todd. I saw it here in Pittsburgh at a theater when it first came out. I love you, Mr Todd. R.i.p
RIP tony todd. A horror icon. I liked him best in the rock, the crow, candyman, final destination, and night of the living dead 1990. Wanted to meet him if he came back to do another creep IE con here in ontario. He was here last year and I didn't go. Didn't start going to conventions until just this year and now I will never get to meet him. Gone too soon. RIP ⚰️
I met Tony Todd at FanExpo in Toronto back in 2012. Easily one of the most laid back, chilled celebrities I ever met and he was more than eager to talk about his non-Candyman roles. I told him I was a big fan of the Night of the Living Dead remake and his role in The Rock, and his eyes lit up. Very sad to hear of his passing but very grateful that I got to meet him.
First time I saw Tony Todd was on screen. It was in "The Rock" where he played one of Ed Harris's soldiers / mercenaries. He really stood out in that film even though it was a minor role.
Unfortunately, I never got a chance to meet him in person, but the first time I remember seeing him in a movie was in The Crow as Grange, he will be deeply missed.
RIP... 😭..Never met him. I just remember as a kid, the first time I was able to watch a horror movie was the Night of the Living Dead remake. He came in and kick ass so much that I just kept watching. And it broke my heart when he turned at the end.
My family and I got to meet him several times at cons. The first was at a local casino. My grandmother had seen him in a trilogy of Westerns he made with Christopher Reeve called Black Fox. When we got to his table I talked about Candyman and Star Trek. My mom talked about Platoon and The Rock. My grandmother mentioned Black Fox and his eyes lit up “I loved making those films, Christopher Reeve was a wonderful friend, thank you so much for enjoying them!” I came back on my own one day and we talked more about his films and Star Trek, but he was still so happy about meeting my grandma. A couple weeks later we went to Worcester for another convention where he was there for a film premiere and the cast was in a long line together signing posters. We got up to him and he said “I recognize you guys, my Black Fox family!” Then many years later we saw him once more at that first con and we talked so long about seeing each other again and by this time my grandma and I had been watching The Flash and he was the voice of Zoom. But he still referred to us as his Black Fox family and he at one point followed me on Twitter. On my grandma’s birthday I posted pictures and he wished her a happy birthday, still calling us his Black Fox family. He was such a genuine and lovely human, and an incredibly talented actor.
The first original candy scares me as a young teenager. It has such an eerie creepy vibe it’s so hard to explain but that movie is still one of the only horror movies that still has that same scary vibe to it for me as a grown man and a lot of that is how amazing and scary Tony Todd was as candyman! Rest in peace god sir!
I was never fortunate enough to meet Tony Todd but my exposure to him was the voice of Zoom on The Flash, I remember finding him so intimidating. A truly legendary voice!
Awesome vid. I didn't allow for enough time to get in his line at Texas Frightmare awhile back but I did get to see him in passing throughout that weekend and managed to score a little honey candy goody bag he was giving out that weekend, so that a cool.
I just found out a few minutes ago. I think everybody who's alive has seen or heard Tony Todd in something. Last night I was watching a Star Trek: Next generation episode and Tony Todd was playing Worf's brother Kern. That voice is one of a kind.
Met Tony Todd, Bruce Campbell, Kane Hodder and Tom Savini at Horrorfind 2005 in Baltimore, MD. What an absolute whirlwind of a weekend that was. Never forget it.
The fact that I finished watching the first Final Destination for the first time 30 minutes before the news came out is an odd coincidence, and I hate it. RIP to a Legend.
I’m from Chicago, so hearing the man behind Candyman, the biggest horror villain that was located and filmed in my home city had died broke me. Sure there’s Chucky, but people don’t really connect Chucky with Chicago as much as Candyman with Chicago. At the beginning of this past October I traveled to Chicago for about a week and when I was there I went past some of the filming locations including Cabrini Green and I was just in awe that I was there where they filmed this icon of a movie and icon of a character. I never met Tony Todd, but always wanted to. An absolute legend of a man and an icon of Horror as well as acting in general. Rest in peace Mr. Todd, your presence in films were extraordinary.
I absolutely loved him as the voice of Dread Wing in Transformers Prime anyone that hasn’t got a chance to check out his Voice work for that show is really missing out on something special. He did amazing as the voice of The Fallen as well. Rest in Paradise and thank you for being one of my horror icons.🕯️🙏👑
Geez...sorry to hear it. Remembered for Candy Man, yes...but I loved him in the LOTLD remake. He was a fantastic Ben. Rest in Peace Tony, you will be missed.
I am so saddened by this news, my thoughts go out to his family and friends. Only met him online in the late 80s, before the Internet. He would talk to me about star trek, computers and diving, no Mr Hollywood stuff. He made you feel he was interested in you and happy to answer questions.
Tony Todd was Candy Man to me. After watching that movie as a kid, i wouldn't EVER enter underground parking lots. But even after Candy Man he was a PRESENSE on the screen no matter what movie it was. World has lost a legend today. RIP Tony Todd.
Unfortunately I meet Tony Todd but my first experience would be either his guest in Smallville or The Crow which I watched as a kid, I didn't get into Candyman until I was well into my teens. He always seemed cool to me and this is a real loss. My condolences to his friends & family.
RIP Tony brother of Worf. I got meet him at a comic con one year and he was awesome. I made a fool of myself when he stood up and I commented on how tall he was . He was so cool and just a great person.
I still haven't seen the movies but was planning on to recently. But I remember my dad describing the movies to me when I was 12 and then playing a scene on his phone, and I was interested in it, but it also scared me so much😂. Then he was cast as venom, and I knew he was the perfect choice . Once I played the game, he was instantly my favorite voice for venom. Rest in peace, Tony.
WOW , this totally caught me off guard !! I saw him at Monsterpalooza this year. Totally cool guy, but I had noticed he was super thin , maybe indicating health issues. Candy man has always been my favorite of his performances. RIP😔
This one hit hard, Tony Todd was one of the only guys I really would have loved to meet at a horror convention if I attended, I've been a fan since Candyman came out on VHS and that movie terrorized my best friend and I the whole night after we watched it, we were scared to go to the bathroom that night cuz of the mirrors in there so we peed in cups that night, I did see him first in the Night of the Living Dead remake which is a great performance too but Candyman is how I learned his name
Wow. Just watched Night of the Living Dead on Peacock after not watching for years and seeing a lot of review videos on here. And now this news. Man….R.I.P. A lot of credits. Final Destination, Candyman, Wishmaster….a long list. You will be missed and not forgotten. One love everybody.
DUDE, I met Tony when he came to Melbourne to promote Sushi Girl 11 years ago. The handshake is REAL, warmest handshake ever, kind and down to earth, and that voice in real life!
I would always see him at con’s but never got around to meeting him. Though my favourite experience with him was when I went to this thing where they were doing a showing of Hatchet outside and Candyman inside, but Tony Todd was a special guest. Anyways I was on a date, we look over in the corner and there’s Tony Todd in a long wool jacket and fedora just watching along with everyone. Crazy watching the movie and then looking over and Candyman in standing right fucking there!! RIP Tony Todd!!
I was hoping to meet Tony Todd at a comic con in my country about 2yrs ago but his attendance was cancelled last minute, seems like we know why now cancer got him R.i.p
Happy Birthday Tony Todd. Your awesome legend, man. I love Transformers 2 Revenge of the Fallen. It's super awesome. I seen all of them. I even listened to Linkin Park. Awesome rock band. New Divide is good music. My older brother loves it. And my youngest. We all do. What I've Done, New Divide and Iridescent. I love watching alien movies!!! The Rock is pretty awesome and, pretty kool. Me, and my brothers love it. I kinda love that part when he said "I WANT MY FUCKING MONEY." OR "YOU KNOW HOW THE SHIT WORKS!? LOL. And my older and me have played Call of Duty Black Ops 2. Good game, it is kool, I love Call of Duty Black Ops 1...! My younger brother always plays killing Zombies. Cause it's good for him. Fully support. UR a good man Tony. Bless ur soul!!! Miss the guy. I even miss my uncle. He died first on September 8, and second was James Earl Jones, on September 9. Yeah. Both died in the same month. There's more. My grandma died on June 3, 4 years ago. And my Aunt, she died on June 26. I was pissed. I missed them. May the Peace be with u Tony Todd. From Harlingen Texas. December 4, 1954 - November 6, 2024 December 4, 2024 through December 4, 3024
my introduction to Tony was the first Candyman on the day of release on VHS had it pre booked as was always a massive Clive Barker fan and horror nut we had a group watching at a friends place she was having her 2 and they were shitting themselves by the end of the movie her folks outta town and the three girls alone ...within the week the video shop gave me a poster for the film and it was laminated and plaster the wall that wasnt dedicated to elm street . He brought so much to the roles in candyman and the crow for me and i gotta say im shocked that he has 120 tv and film credits to his name i knew he was busy but damn rest in peace Tony you have earnt it
😢 And I just watched CandyMan for my Día de Muertos movie Marathon and thinking about making a custom of him in Mezco Mega MDS form. Descanse En Paz Tony
Oh nooooooooo my deepest condolences to the Todd family. I remember watching Candyman as a kid I thought it'd be a good idea to go in the bathroom with the lights off say Candyman 5X's when my dad who had a coat similar to Candyman's barged in scaring me & putting me off the film for a good 10yrs. My dad although black was older, partly going grey, different build & probably shorter than Tony(dad was 5ft 11½). My parents laughed till their voice went hoarse, both my parents have sadly passed away & that Candyman memory is something I'll always treasure I wish I could've thanked Tony for that moment. Rest in peace Tony one mack daddy you don't wanna f**k with.
I lost hope for final destination 6 if he’s not going to be apart of the film, I’m so saddened by his passing, I’ve been binge watching the final destination films recently aswell, rip Tony Todd
For me he stole every spotlight he entered! Candyman, Final Destination, and one of my all time favorite episodes of The X files titled "sleepless." He is one of the most beautiful men in the world to me. He always seems so regal and sexy. I really appreciated that episode of the X files as someone who has suffered with insomnia since age 8 (now 44.) For me 72 hours of no sleep and I start cracking. The episode revolves around a group of soldiers who were experimented on by the military for sleep eradication. They hadn't slept in 28 years. I can't even imagine. RIP Tony🖤🖤🖤

Rip Tony Todd such a badass actor and voice actor you will be missed
I really wanted to meet Tony in person but this will never happen. Rest in peace Candyman :((
Me too he was my favorite I love candyman I remember watching it all the time back in the day I was 7 when it came out #RIPTONYTODD
I got to meat him in 2016. He was super friendly and cool
I'll always remember him for Platoon and Night Of The Living Dead '90. Farewell Tony Todd. ❤
Wtf. No way man, this is way to soon…. Man i wish i could have gotten the opportunity to meet him..
Forever will be the only CANDYMAN. Rest in Paradise Tony 🕊️
It's been hardly a month after I discovered Tony Todd voiced The Fallen in Transformers Revenge of The Fallen.
He also voiced Zoom in the Flash TV show
He was Dreadwind in Transformers Prime as well.
I’m so sad man
RIP Tony Todd 😢 I cried when I heard about his passing
To quote a favorite song of mine "Your passing is not what we mourn, but, the world you left behind".
I love that ❤️
What's the song called?

such a class act of a guy. just one of those actors that elevates any movie even if it was a bad one. rest easy, Tony 🖤
Holy shit...I am in shock.
Let’s all remember what amazing roles Tony played as. Rip Candyman, he will be missed…
I was never fortunate enough to meet Tony Todd but my exposure to him was the voice of Zoom on The Flash, I remember finding him so intimidating. A truly legendary voice!
I had no idea he voiced Zoom! But makes sense with that silver tongue 👏🏻

I never met him, but the first time I saw him was as Kurn in ST:TNG
my introduction to Tony was the first Candyman on the day of release on VHS had it pre booked as was always a massive Clive Barker fan and horror nut we had a group watching at a friends place she was having her 2 and they were shitting themselves by the end of the movie her folks outta town and the three girls alone ...within the week the video shop gave me a poster for the film and it was laminated and plaster the wall that wasnt dedicated to elm street . He brought so much to the roles in candyman and the crow for me and i gotta say im shocked that he has 120 tv and film credits to his name i knew he was busy but damn rest in peace Tony you have earnt it
WTF?! RIP
RIP Tony Todd, great horror icon.
😢 And I just watched CandyMan for my Día de Muertos movie Marathon and thinking about making a custom of him in Mezco Mega MDS form. Descanse En Paz Tony
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿💐🌹🥀🌺😢😢😢
The greatest gift a man can give is the unconditional love we have for another. - rest easy Tony.
Oh nooooooooo my deepest condolences to the Todd family. I remember watching Candyman as a kid I thought it'd be a good idea to go in the bathroom with the lights off say Candyman 5X's when my dad who had a coat similar to Candyman's barged in scaring me & putting me off the film for a good 10yrs. My dad although black was older, partly going grey, different build & probably shorter than Tony(dad was 5ft 11½). My parents laughed till their voice went hoarse, both my parents have sadly passed away & that Candyman memory is something I'll always treasure I wish I could've thanked Tony for that moment. Rest in peace Tony one mack daddy you don't wanna f**k with.
Didn't expect to wake up to see this news😢
Rip, mr. todd. He died WAY too soon. Man, 2024 has been a really bad year. Hopefully 2025 will be way better.
I lost hope for final destination 6 if he’s not going to be apart of the film, I’m so saddened by his passing, I’ve been binge watching the final destination films recently aswell, rip Tony Todd
Hes on the mount rushmore of voices next to James Earl Jones and Keith David.
R.i.P. Candyman "you are the Rocket-Man"
For me he stole every spotlight he entered! Candyman, Final Destination, and one of my all time favorite episodes of The X files titled "sleepless." He is one of the most beautiful men in the world to me. He always seems so regal and sexy. I really appreciated that episode of the X files as someone who has suffered with insomnia since age 8 (now 44.) For me 72 hours of no sleep and I start cracking. The episode revolves around a group of soldiers who were experimented on by the military for sleep eradication. They hadn't slept in 28 years. I can't even imagine. RIP Tony🖤🖤🖤
So sad such a horror icon we have now lost RIP
Only one way to bring him back...
CANDYMAN CANDYMAN CANDYMAN
Candyman vs chucky this is best fighting horror crossover ever had!
I first saw Tony Todd in the original Candyman
The grim reaper has officially hung up his cloak & scythe
R.I.P Candyman 😢
Wait, oh no. Rest easy sir.
I loved him in jp 3
RIP
Yeah
💚
I only saw the Raquel but when I saw the first I thought he was definitely the best part of it
