Terence Stamp, the Oscar-nominated British actor known for his roles in "Superman" and "Billy Budd," died Sunday, his family confirmed to Reuters. He was 87.

Filmmaker Edgar Wright and actors Guy Pearce and Lou Diamond Phillips took to social media to express their grief over the Sunday death of actor Terence Stamp.

The late great Terence Stamp was an actor of such magnitude and charisma that he was often associated with a form of “effortless cool” that he earned from his prominence in the “Swinging Sixties” generation.

The British actor, who starred in 'Billy Budd,' 'Wall Street,' 'Superman II' and 'The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert,' died Sunday at 87.
