May he Rest in Peace.” And Bracco shared her sadness in a tweet, saying, “I am utterly shattered to hear this terrible news about my Ray. I can be anywhere in the world & people will come up & tell me their favorite movie is ‘Goodfellas.’ Then they always ask what was the best part of making that movie. My response has always been the same… Ray Liotta.” I am utterly shattered to hear this terrible news about my Ray.

Other Friends and Co-Stars Remember Ray Liotta

Several other co-stars and friends are paying tribute to Ray Liotta. The actor portrayed the Moltisanti twins in The Many Saints of Newark, a prequel film to The Sopranos. David Chase, the creator of The Sopranos, said in a statement, “I have been an admirer of Ray’s work since I saw him in Something Wild, a movie he wrenched by the tail. I was so glad he worked on The Many Saints of Newark. I believed strongly in my heart that he could play that double role. He created two distinctly separate characters, and each performance was phenomenal,” he said. “Ray was also a very warm and humorous person. A really superior actor. We all felt we lucked out having him on that movie.” Jennifer Lopez, who worked with Liotta on the NBC series Shades of Blue, also paid tribute to her lost co-star in several tweets saying, “Ray was my partner in crime on Shades of Blue… the first thing that comes to mind is he so was kind to my children. Ray was the epitome of a tough guy who was all mushy on the inside… I guess that’s what made him such a compelling actor to watch. The original Goodfella.” Lopez said, “We lost a great today.” Ray was my partner in crime on Shades of Blue … the first thing that comes to mind is he so was kind to my children.

Rogen shared his grief for his lost co-star, tweeting, “I can’t believe Ray Liotta has passed away. He was such a lovely, talented and hilarious person. Working with him was one of the great joys of my career, and we made some of my favorite scenes I ever got to be in. A true legend of immense skill and grace.” Knives Out star Jamie Lee Curtis wrote, “Ray Liotta has died. His work as an actor showed his complexity as a human being. A gentle man. So sad to hear.” Cary Elwes from The Princess Bride and Glory called Liotta an “extraordinary talent whose remarkable performances left an indelible mark on the screen. Our deepest condolences to his family. RIP Ray” Another one of Liotta’s most memorable roles was Shoeless Joe Jackson in Field of Dreams. His co-star in the film, Kevin Costner, expressed his sadness for Liotta’s death on Twitter, saying, “Devastated to hear the news of Ray Liotta’s passing. While he leaves an incredible legacy, he’ll always be ‘Shoeless Joe Jackson’ in my heart. What happened at that moment in the film was real. God gave us that stunt. Now God has Ray.” Devastated to hear the news of Ray Liotta’s passing. While he leaves an incredible legacy, he’ll always be “Shoeless Joe Jackson” in my heart.
