In August, internet users were led to believe that “Tombstone” star Sam Elliott had died. Just before his 79th birthday, a YouTube channel called Celeb Breaking News decided it would be a great time to make a tribute to the talented actor, who “died” — except he didn’t. “10 Minutes Ago! American Actor Sam Elliott His Last Goodbye On His Deathbed #whodiedtoday,” the title of the video read. To make things even more convincing, whoever created the video added a very believable description. “Today, we’re saying goodbye to a true Hollywood legend, Sam Elliott,” it read. Sites like Hollywood Life and the New York Post were tagged, so it had to be legit, right? Wrong.
Snopes was quick to debunk the report, confirming that Elliott didn’t die. Elliott has been fairly active in the entertainment business as of late, voicing a character in “Family Guy” and starring in the “Yellowstone” spinoff, “1883.” He has also lent his voice to a documentary called “The Gettysburg Address,” which is slated for release in 2025.
