Sean Penns brother, he was the dude who hated Kevin Bacon at first in Footloose and then became his friend when he taught him to dance, he was in Resevoir dogs too, he played the son of the mobster who always wore the track suit.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Character actor Chris Penn, younger brother of Oscar-winner Sean Penn, was found dead on Tuesday at an apartment near the Pacific Ocean in the Los Angeles suburb of Santa Monica, police sources said.

No cause of death was immediately determined but there was no signs of foul play, the sources added.

A family spokeswoman confirmed the death and said the Penn family "would appreciate the media's respect of their privacy during this difficult time."

Penn, 43, was a character actor who appeared in dozens of films including "Reservoir Dogs," "Mullholland Falls" and the 2004 film "Starsky & Hutch."

In one of his best known roles, he played baby-faced criminal Nice Guy Eddie Cabot in director Quentin Tarantino's "Reservoir Dogs." He also starred along with his brother in the 1986 film "At Close Range."

Recently, Penn voiced Officer Eddie Pulaski in the video game "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas."

Dude was getting huge. Always sweating in every role. Sad to see this. He was a good actor and kicked ass in Reservoir Dogs and Footloose. Some of the best lines were his in Revervoir Dogs. This sucks. I wonder what happened?

I hate the fact that the only role I know him from is Corky Romano.

yeah, i always liked that dude. he played his roles well - never stood out as being actor, ya know.

yeah, if he was in the movie, you knew you were gonna at least get one good performance. He was in a shitload of good movies. He was only 43, fuck.
