We lost another legend as Tim Curry has passed away.
Curry memorably played Long John Silver in 1996's Muppet Treasure Island a role he reprised for the CD-ROM game.
It's been said that while Michael Cain treated The Muppets as fellow actors for The Muppet Christmas Carol, Tim Curry considered himself a fellow Muppet for Muppet Treasure Island.
At the conclusion of filming, Curry was given a Muppet caricature of himself as a gift, which you can see here.
