Ned Beatty, who starred in Superman and Deliverance, passed away in his sleep at age 83 on Sunday.

The veteran actor had a celebrated career that spanned more than five decades.

His family told TMZ that he passed away at his Los Angeles home surrounded by family, but did not provide any other details about the cause of death.

One of the actor’s most notable performances was 1976’s Network, for which he earned an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor.

He also had a notable appearance as Otis in the 1978 version of Superman and its 1980 sequel.

Other roles include Deliverance, Friendly Fire, All the President’s Men, Back to School, Nashville, and Captain America.

He also had some voice acting roles, including as evil bear Lotso in Toy Story 3.

The actor was born in 1937 in Louisville, Kentucky, and began singing in barbershop quartets, Baptist revivals, and weddings as a teen.

He began acting in the theatre in 1957 and had several prominent roles before landing his first major film gig with Deliverance in 1972.

The survival flick, which also starred Burt Reynolds, Jon Voight, and Ronnie Cox, put Beatty on the map as a serious actor as he starred in the horrific and infamous “Squeal like a pig” rape scene.
