    One of those who I thought had died years ago. Great character actor. Loved him in The Natural.

    RIP

    He looked 85 in Cocoon. He was just over half that.

    Fun Fact: Tom Cruise was the same age when he filmed Mission Impossible: Fallout as Brimley was when he filmed Cocoon: The Return.

    Brimley stole the show in his scene.
