Cancer is such a cruel disease. Lost my uncle to it last year. Julian McMahon was brilliant in Nip/Tuck - that show was way ahead of its time. Om Shanti 🙏

While the tribute is touching, I wish media wouldn't focus so much on celebrity deaths when we lose so many common people daily to cancer. Still, RIP to a talented actor.

His performance as Dr. Troy was iconic! The way he portrayed that complex character was masterful. So young to go... cancer doesn't discriminate. Thoughts with his daughter especially.

First time I saw him was in Fantastic Four as Doctor Doom. Didn't realize he was Australian! Shows his acting range. 56 is no age to go. Life is so unpredictable.

The photo with his daughter is so precious 💔 Losing a parent is the hardest thing. Hope she gets all the support she needs. More awareness needed about cancer prevention in India too.
