Oscar-winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman was found dead of an apparent drug overdose — in the bathroom with a hypodermic needle still in his arm — inside a Greenwich Village home on Sunday morning, cops said.

A personal assistant found Hoffman’s body in an apartment at 35 Bethune St. and called 911 around 11:30 a.m, sources said.

Cops are at the scene and are investigating, sources said.

In 2006, Hoffman publicly admitted that he nearly succumbed to substance abuse graduating from NYU’s drama school, but got sober in rehab.

“It was all that (drugs and alcohol), yeah. It was anything I could get my hands on…I liked it all,” he told “60 Minutes” as the time.

Last year, Hoffman reportedly checked himself into rehab again for ten days after relapsing in 2012.

TMZ said he began using prescription pills, then snorted heroin for about a week before realizing he needed help.

Am I the only person who loses respect for people when they die of overdosing?

Heroin what a shame, it was known that he has used it before in small doses for creative reasons.

Probably my favorite comedy moment from the man himself tbh, atleast top 3.

Who is he.

He was a relatively popular supporting actor, he look at his IMDb or wikipedia page it's flooded with plenty of known movies where you would've seen him in. I lost count somewhere around 30/35

movies of which I've seen him in.
