Sir Michael Gambon, 'Harry Potter and Gosford Park' actor, dies at 82

Sir Michael Gambon, best known for his role in 'Harry Potter' films and 'The Singing Detective', died peacefully at the hospital following a bout of pneumonia. He was 82.

The family has sought privacy at this painful time and thanked everyone for messages of support and love

A statement by his publicist said, he died following 'a bout of pneumonia.'
'We are devastated to announce the loss of Sir Michael Gambon. Beloved husband and father, Michael died peacefully in hospital with his wife Anne and son Fergus at his bedside,' his family said.

No matter what role he took on in a career that lasted more than five decades, Gambon was always instantly recognisable by the deep and drawling tones of his voice. He was cast as the much-loved Dumbledore after the death of his predecessor, Richard Harris, in 2002.
