- Were you a fan of Dean Stockwell’s early work as a child actor, or did you prefer his later work as a character actor during his adult years? Fans were devastated to learn that character actor and former child star Dean Stockwell had passed away on November 7, 2021, from natural causes. The death came after Dean had been retired from acting for several years, having ended his career after appearing in the 2015 independent feature Entertainment to focus on his health. That actor had suffered a stroke and decided that it would be best to take it easy during his remaining years.

By 2015, Dean had done so much in his lifetime that he deserved the rest! The actor had started out acting when he was in his single digits, having been pushed into the entertainment industry by his show-business parents. His parents never made it as successful entertainers, and they saw a meal ticket in young Dean when he started showing some acting talent. They subsequently pushed him into a career as a child star, and he was soon financially supporting his entire family himself!
Dean resented being a child actor and decided to leave the industry during his young adulthood to pursue an education. He then came back during the late 1950s and received some acclaim for his dramatic performance alongside Orson Welles in the film Compulsion. He received middling work after this, and also joined a hippie commune in the mid-1960s. Another member of the commune was Neil Young.
In the 1980s, Dean retired again before approaching David Lynch and asking for a role in his adaptation of Dune. David gave him a role, and Dean’s appearance in the film sparked a third phase of his career that proved his most successful yet! Join Facts Verse as we pay our respects to Dean Stockwell, former child actor, and Quantum Leap star.

Another legend gone. Didn't realize he was a childhood actor. He will be missed!
I just started watching Quantum Leap again. Always loved that show. Rip
R.I.P. Dean Stockwell. You made Quantum Leap one of my favorite TV shows, when I was younger. Especially the episode of “A Tale of Two Sweeties - February 25, 1958.” Season # 5, Episode # 12. Sam must decide between families when he leaps into a salesman with two wives. Also, the episode of “Blood Moon - March 10, 1975.” Season # 5, Episode # 15. Sam leaps into an English castle where the occupants practice vampire rituals. He must save the young wife of the castle owner. Dean Stockwell’s performances in these episodes ALWAYS put a smile on my face! 😁
Dean Stockwell, you were greatly appreciated and you will be significantly missed. 😇🌈🙏🏾💖
He was such a good actor. Loved him!
Dean will always be miss. I love his work. Quantum Leap was my favorite!
Rest in Peace Dean. Studied with his brother Guy Stockwell for 8 years.
A family of entertainers.

What a fantastic man.
He was really in his role when he acted.
God be with you always.
Dean Stockwell was a fine actor, from his roles as a child to his later roles as an adult. He left us with some very fine performances.
Rip Dean..... Thank you for many years of entertainment in movies and on tv.....you always chose good roles and played them well.
"The Boy with the Green Hair" was the second film to make me cry as a kid. R.I.P.
Thanks for watching!
I saw ‘The Boy With the Green Hair’ when I was about the same age as the young actor. I felt totally identified with him.
@@FactsVerse Thanks for doing what you do.
I loved him in quantum leap. He also seemed like a nice man. My condolences to his family
Great life, Mr. Stockwell. You now made the real quantum leap. RIP. Thanks for the memories.
Dean Stockwell had an intensity that was evident from the start (see "The Secret Garden"). I remember especially his role in "Sons and Lovers", based on the D. H. Lawrence book. In "Compulsion" he was chilling. In "Quantum Leap" he was droll. A fine actor, all told.
Loved that guy. Will never be forgotten and fondly remembered forever. RIP
Dean was a very good actor :)
RIP Dean you are truly missed ....
I don't think Dean Stockwell ever played a part that I didn't love him in. I loved him in quantum leap and by far and away his role as the sadistic brother Cavill in Battlestar Galactica was my favorite. Not to mention some of his Cameo rolls that he played over the years. I remember when he turned up on the TV series Jag and played the secretary of the Navy. He also turned up for an episode of NCIS New Orleans and was once again reunited with Scott bakula. Although, it was one of the episodes later on in the series. Unfortunately, NCIS New Orleans pretty much went to crap after season 2. Maybe, if Dean had a regular role on the show that wouldn't have been the case. Lol. At any rate, I am truly saddened to hear of his death. TV and film was a far better place with him then without him.
RIP He WILL Be dearly missed
I watched Dean in many roles on television. It wasn't until I saw him in Quantum Leap that I began to like his performances. He and Scott Bakula made such a fine team. It was as if they had been related for ever. Sorry to hear of Mr. Stockwell's death. May he rest in peace!
Thanks for watching!
He was in Anchors Aweigh with Gene Kelly and Frank Sinatra also guest starred in Hart to Hart as well,brilliant actor. RIP Dean
thank you Mr Stockwell for decades of entertainment. and many roles and characters.
So cute and good in "Boy with Green Hair" and "Compulsion." RIP Dean Stockwell.
Loved him when we were both kids ! Will miss him ! RIP . will continue to watch you every chance
I get.
Always liked him and his acting. He's was handsome man , Blessings to his Family for strength.
Both. Stockwell was one of the few actors to successfully transition from child actor, and continued throughout his adulthood. R.I.P. Dean Stockwell.
Dean Stockwell was a talented and amazing actor. I truly enjoyed everything he was in. Thank you for sharing this.
I love him in quantum Leap and I didn't know he was a child actor until a few years when I saw his film I think it's little garden.
My first encounter with Mr. Stockwell’s talent was in the Bonanza episode The Medal. He was a very capable actor doing both drama and comedy equally well. Absolutely loved the chemistry between Dean and Scott Bakula on QL. Sir, you will be sorely missed. R I P.
He was a great actor and will be dearly missed.
God bless and rest in peace!
Sad to hear he has passed. May he rest In Peace. I remember him in Quantum Leap. He was a favorite actor. I remember him playing a bad guy in a Western too. Can't remember what it was called though. Thanks for sharing this.
Rest In Peace Dean 💔🥺
my deepest condolences to his family and friends
Rest in Paradise Mr. Stockwell. You left an incredible legacy of work for the generations to come.
Rip, you will be missed 🙏
I love Dean Stockwell as an actor from Anchors Aweigh to his later years. I also had the pleasure of meeting him in the mid 2000s, such a lovely, lovely man
I loved him on Quantum Leap. He was the perfect companion actor to Scott's character. He will be greatly missed!
Loved him in quantum leap and when he appeared on the show murder she wrote 💝
He was born the same year as myself, I loved him in Married to the Mob. Such a disappointment in his parents
I was born that same year, too. I loved Dean Stockwell in the many movies he made. Down to the Sea in Ships, The Secret Garden, and best of all Kim. I was so jealous of all the adventures he had in that movie, while I had to be content to just go to school!!
A very versatile versatile actor. RIP DEAN
Loved Dean as a child actor, saw most of his movies at the theater more than once...loved him!!! Made me later watch out anything he did. RIP Dean and thank you!!!!
Seems like all the good ones are leaving us. I enjoyed his work tremendously and will miss him. Rest peacefully Mr. Stockwell.
OMG....Prayers for you Dean....you're missed, you're Battlestar Galactic's role and Dine was great....again most Prayers...🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I remember seeing him when I was a child in Song of the South my first little crush he was a very nice looking little boy. . He had a very long career. RIP
There is no Quantum Leap without the irreplaceable Dean Stockwell. Makes me wonder how Dr. Sam Beckett would cope leaping from life to life without his holographic friend Admiral Albert "Al" Calavicci. Heartbroken over the death of Dean Stockwell. If I could make time stand still, this would be 30 years ago when Dean played his best ever character - an acting job he obviously loved doing. He was such a handsome middle aged man in those days. Rest in peace, Dean. 🙏🏻💔
I am so sorry to hear Dean’s passing. I adored him!
Rest easy sir. Thank you for all of the great entertainment you gave us..
Dean was fantastic in 'Kim'. He had a wonderful chemistry with Errol Flynn, that makes the movie so entertaining. I watch it every time is available.
Loved this mans work, truly a nice person who will be sadly missed 😢
He was such a beautiful child. I loved him in Anchors Aweigh and The Secret Garden. RIP.
Thanks for watching!
Versatile and talented actor. Leaves a great body of work as his legacy. Bravo. Grazie.👏👏
Wow. Sad news. He was a good actor. I liked him in Dune and Quantin Leap. R.I.P. May we celebrate your life. You will be missed. Thank you and God bless. 🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐😭😭😭😭😭😭
Loved Dean Stockwell as Al on Quantum Leap first ❤, but I have since explored much of his long filmography from his early days at MGM in 1945 until the end of his career before he retired in 2015. He was such a naturally talented, versatile actor with a great screen presence. He could draw you in with just a single look in his eyes; and, even if he wasn't the main focal point of a scene, you could see him adding subtle nuances that made the scene much more interesting without really putting the spotlight on himself. However, he was also the King of the Memorable Cameo. He may only have one scene in a movie, but you'll remember it. Blue Velvet...need I say more. I had heard stories of how kind he was to his fellow cast mates, and how he would check in with the child actors on the set before. However, with all the tributes I've heard, that confirms it even more. He said in a 1993 interview he did for TCM that he always appreciated the actors who would check in with him and made him feel welcome on the set when he was a child star. So I can definitely see him doing that for any of the child actors he worked with...because he had been there and understood what they were going through. He was definitely a gem who will be greatly missed. RIP Dean Stockwell. 😪💔
Thanks for watching!
Does anyone remember a fine movie called "Down to the Sea In Ships," with Lionel Barrymore, Richard Widmark and Dean Stockwell? It's an older black and white film with many actors many will recognize. There was no vulgar language, no nudity or sex and no or extremely low violence. There was also no CGI or blue screen. Even though a main protagonist died from a heart attack the ending was hopeful and encouraging. Ah...I guess that's why many today would not enjoy it.
I was very sad when I learned he had passed away. I got to meet him once, he was so down to earth and really nice, and that's rarity in Hollywood, believe me. He will ALWAYS be Rear Admiral Albert Calavicci to me, he brought that character to life. I was upset and pissed off that they took Quantum Leap off the air. NBC chairman and President, Brandon Tartikoff loved the series. But when he left to become President of Paramount, Warren Littlefield took over and he hated the series and didn’t understand it appeal to the audience. He shuffled the series around on different nights, that’s usually the death of a series, when networks do that, the audience couldn’t find what night it was on. The final episode was horrible. When they shot that last episode, the show was still in limbo, so they filmed three different endings. Sam never returned home. Over the years, there were rumors that they might bring back the series. But Donald Bellisario sold his stake in the series to Universal, that was NEVER going to happen. Talk of a feature film being made without the two main characters of Sam and Al were some of the rumors. I was never going to watch that movie and it was never made, thank God for small favors. How can you make a movie and not use the same characters that were in the original series? Didn’t make sense. Dean said he signed on to do the series for the free cigars. Loved his sense of humor. He smoked about 5 or 6 in each episode. That’s a lot of cigars.
I loved Dean as Al in Quantum Leap. I loved the show so much my husband bought me the whole series on DVD's. It was always wonderful to wonder where would Sam and Al turn up next? Would this be the episode where they got it right and Sam would finally go home? Sadly Sam never made it home. Him and Al had a lot of travels and did good things along the way. I was sadden to hear of Dean's passing. Felt like an old friend just died. I looked forward to see Sam and Al every week. They don't make shows like Quantum Leap anymore. I hope and pray that Dean rests in peace and know we thank him for his many years as an actor.
Thanks for watching!
He was great. Such tremendous talent. RIP sir. You may be gone but will not be forgotten.
He had a great filmography. Brilliant in The Lamgoliers. RIP Dean.
R.I.P legend
Dean will be, missed. I remember him in the movie with Harrison Ford and several others he had a very good part in a major movie " Airforce 1 " Dean was a good actor in every movie or tv series that he played in. 🙁🙁

Wonderful actor
Bashes handlink::: Ziggy says rest in peace Dean Stockwell. I'll always remember him as AL in quantum leap and his role on the langoliers.
I loved Dean in Quantum Leap. I recently saw him in two old episodes of Wagon Train. In each he played 2 incredibly different and deeply thought out characters. What a gifted actor. I need to check his old child star roles. A gem who will never be forgotten.❤
One of our favorites too, you've got fine taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
Rest in peace and thank you🍻
R.I.P I LOVE HIM. he was great in quantum leap. I still watch every week day

I loved Dean Stockwell and Scott Bakula in Quantum Leap! Sad to hear of his death😟
RIP Dean he had amazing carrier , he was one of rare child star who didn't became problematic . His role in the Quantum leap was very good and that wasn't like any other shows from that time.
You don’t see too many child actors turn into adolescence and evolve to adult acting roles before our eyes and actually have a great long lives, Jackie Cooper also comes to mind and then Dean Stockwell is one of those actors that gave fine memorable performances throughout his acting career RIP
🗣R.I.P Dean🙏🏿😪😔
I remember the boy with the Green Hair mostly. I also enjoyed him in Quantum Leap. RIP.
Thanks for watching!
I loved him on quantum leap he will be very well missed! May Dean Stockwell R. I. P
Hello again Facts Verse 👋 I was heartbroken when I heard that Dean had passed away. I really used to enjoy watching him on Quantum Leap. I never knew that he actually started off as a child actor and had so many roles after that. Is there anyway to see Quantum Leap now? I knew that Scott would take Dean’s passing hard to deal with. Thank you for another great video Tim and I hope you and your subscribers have a wonderful day. 🌤
On Roku, that's where I'm watching it
@@nancytanco5985 thank you so much for your reply. I will definitely have to get Roku so I can watch it all over again.
