Floyd Levine, the American character actor known for roles in Dog Day Afternoon and The Hangover, has died at the age of 93. The New York-born performer passed away on Sunday, with the news confirmed by his daughter-in-law Tracy Robbins in an Instagram tribute on Thursday.
Levine's screen career spanned more than four decades, with notable appearances alongside Al Pacino in Dog Day Afternoon and in comedies such as The Hangover and Norbit. He also featured in Coach Carter, Ron Howard's Night Shift, and television staples including Murder, She Wrote, Baywatch, and Cagney and Lacey.
Robbins remembered her father-in-law as 'the best father-in-law, grandpa, and all-round jokester', noting that he began his career as a cab driver in New York before pursuing acting in California. She added: 'I will miss his humour, stories, and F-bombs that Stella made a lot of money off of. Here's to my forever Brooklyn boy, Floyd, may the martinis be cold and the Sinatra songs never end.'
Levine's son, Brian Robbins, is the CEO of Paramount Pictures. The pair appeared together in episodes of Archie Bunker's Place and Head of the Class. Levine also made appearances in Nickelodeon shows Kenan and Kel and the film Good Burger.
Kris Jenner offered condolences on Robbins' post, writing: 'So sorry for your loss Tracy and Brian… we are sending prayers for the family and lots of love.' Levine leaves behind a legacy of more than 70 screen credits.
