Pulp Fiction and The Mask star dies
Peter Greene, the actor known for roles in Pulp Fiction and The Mask, has died aged 60.
He was found dead at his New York City apartment on Friday, his manager confirmed. A cause of death has not been disclosed.
Greene drew praise for the various villains and criminals he played in his acting career, which began in his 20s. "Nobody played a bad guy better than Peter," manager Gregg Edwards told Sky News' US sister outlet NBC News.
"But he also had, you know, a gentle side that most people never saw, and a heart as big as gold." Greene played the character Zed, a sadistic rapist security guard in Quentin Tarantino's 1994 film Pulp Fiction. He also portrayed the villain Dorian in the Jim Carrey movie The Mask in the same year.
In addition to his supporting roles, Greene starred in the 1993 film Clean, Shaven, in which he played a man with schizophrenia who is suspected in a murder. He is also remembered for his role in Training Day alongside Denzel Washington.
Greene also appeared in The Usual Suspects. Greene was born in Montclair, New Jersey, and leaves behind a sister and a brother..
