R.I.P. Joel Schumacher

Deadline is reporting that director Joel Shumacher has passed away. The director was 80 years old.

Joel Schumacher, who directed some two dozen films including Batman Forever, Batman & Robin, Brat Pack pics St. Elmo’s Fire and The Lost Boys along with Falling Down and John Grisham adaptations The Client and A Time to Kill, died today. He was 80…

…Born on August 29, 1939, in NYC, Schumacher first made his name as a costume designer for such 1070s pics as Woody Allen’s Sleeper and Interiors, along with Blume in Love, The Prisoner of Second Avenue and The Last of Sheila. He also was production designer on the 1974 telefilm Killer Bees during the disaster-movie era.

Schumacher directed some of Hollywood’s most in-demand stars, including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Michael Douglas, Nicole Kidman, Julia Roberts, Anthony Hopkins, and Susan Sarandon.

Joel Schumacher directed a lot of films that I enjoy. For some of us he’ll be remembered for directing a pair of Batman movies, for others he’ll be remembered for 8MM and Phone Booth. Schumacher has a long career and will be missed. Check out agen poker online.
