The Character Died with Him	comment	A sad form of Real Life Writes the Plot and the Logical Extreme of Written-In Infirmity: a character is written out of the show or even (and usually) Killed Off for Real because the actor who portrayed them has left not just the show, but the mortal coil itself. In other words, the Grim Reaper himself arranges an (obviously long) bus trip. In these circumstances, don't expect the character to be Put on a Bus to Hell, but rather an episode directly (and often respectfully) dealing with the death and deceased. This often causes major changes in the cast dynamic. If the character was a big enough part of the show, it could be derailed or even ended altogether. It's usually seen in Anime, Western Animation, and Live-Action TV, but this can happen in film as well if the movie is a series (see Indiana Jones below). The inverse is Character Outlives Actor when a character is taken out of a show and is still alive, but the actor who played them has died and sometimes in the case of animation, replaced with a soundalike, though in some cases, both can overlap if the character's death took place later than their actor's. This is a trope, as the event affects the narrative. However, outside of the narrative, it may prompt an episode or credits nod In Memoriam. A Really Dead Montage may result for longstanding characters. Fans may do this preemptively via Death Fic. If a voice actor dies (or otherwise stops being available) but the character simply stops having voiced appearances, it's Actor Existence Limbo. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware.

The Character Died with Him / int_122bf099	comment	A rare non-actor version of this once occurred in the classic adventure strip Terry and the Pirates. The wisecracking Ace Pilot Dude Hennick was based on a Real Life friend of Terry's creator, Milton Caniff, named Frank Higgs. Higgs, like Dude, flew on relief efforts for war-torn China in the years leading up America's entry into World War II. Dude had not been seen in the strip in years when, on a Christmas Day, 1945 strip, Caniff spoke directly to the reader, revealing Dude had been based on Higgs... and that Higgs died in a plane crash. "I know today you're probably thinking of your own 'good Joe' who didn't get to see this Christmas, but if you liked Dude, I hope you'll spare a thought for Higgs. Dude died when he did."

The Character Died with Him / int_261c8d3f	comment	In The Simpsons episode "The Man Who Grew Too Much", Edna Krabappel was stated to have died following Marcia Wallace's passing of pneumonia in 2013. The cause of death in isn't specifically stated, most likely due to Homer claiming that he accidentally killed Krabappel with his car in the episode "Holidays of Future Passed", which aired before Marcia Wallace's death. After Ned Flanders has a dream about him and Edna doing the tango, he looks at the picture of Edna and remarks sadly, "I sure do miss that laugh." Nelson the school bully replies, "Ha-ha! I miss her, too." The chalkboard gag for an earlier episode has a sad Bart somberly staring at the board which contains a single line: "We'll really miss you, Mrs. K."

When Duke reads the news of Thompson's passing, his head immediately explodes, only to reappear so that he can make sure he didn't misread the story. After Duke confirms the story, his head promptly explodes again. For the remainder of that week, Duke descends into a bizarre, probably drug-fueled series of Ralph Steadman-inspired hallucinations. Considering to whom the tribute was being paid, this actually seems appropriate. Ironically, this probably would have pissed Thompson off; he hated Uncle Duke.

The Character Died with Him / int_3f231b84	comment	Jurassic World contains an unintentional example. The Hammond Genetics Lab is a memorial to the character of John Hammond, and it's mentioned at multiple points the park is a testament to his work and everything that he did, now that his dream has come to fruition. The new owner of the park, Simon Masrani, even says that he's carrying out Hammond's dying wish. There is also a statue of him in the visitor's center. All this seems to serve as a tribute to Richard Attenborough, who died at age 90 just before the film was released. However, Attenborough actually died during the film's post-production; the screenwriting and filming, as well as the statue, had already been completed by the time of his death. In the next film Fallen Kingdom though, it's all but confirmed in dialogue that Hammond is dead, and then in Dominion, it's outright said, but it isn't revealed how exactly he died, though all that is known about it is that it occurred shortly after the events of The Lost World.

The Character Died with Him / int_46518682	comment	Sesame Street: When actor Will Lee, who played Mr. Hooper, passed away in 1982, the producers were faced with the usual options for dealing with loss on a kids' show: cast a new actor, or have the character simply leave the show (either with an explanation, such as he retired, or without). Instead, the producers realized kids would immediately notice Mr. Hooper was either different or gone without a trace, so Sesame Street ran an episode where the human characters explain to Big Bird that Mr. Hooper had died, that it's all right to miss him, and that even though life will never be quite the same when someone beloved dies, it will be okay. In tribute to him, the portrait Big Bird was going to give him still hangs in his nest to this day, nearly 40 years later. It even survived the hurricane that destroyed Big Bird's nest in 2001. One documentary said that the "Mr. Hooper's not coming back" scene was the only scene in Sesame Street history done in a single take because the cast was too emotionally wrecked to do more takes. It speaks volumes that the single take captured genuine emotion and showed that grownups, too, can feel sad and cry when people they love die, which played a huge role in keeping the scene at one take... and also played a major role in the scene's critical acclaim. It also says a great deal about how much Will Lee's coworkers loved him. This episode is also notable for not using a Really Dead Montage. The producers thought that it would be too confusing to talk about Mr. Hooper being gone forever while still showing him on screen. (However, several years after Hooper's passing, one would be played, usually when a newcomer asks about the store or Hooper himself; it was probably determined that enough time had passed and that the audience generally understood that Hooper was no longer with his neighbors and friends.) In addition, Bob Johnson and Luis Rodriguez are implied to have died after the deaths of Bob McGrath and Emilio Delgado respectively, even though these characters left the show in 2016.

Zig-Zagged with Sean Connery. Henry Jones was said to have passed away in Crystal Skull as well (Indy also having a picture of him on his desk), but Connery was only retired at the time. There'd been talks about hoping to convince Connery to return, and for Henry to be Faking the Dead, for the next movie for years, but then he passed away in 2020 at age 90. That put the idea of Henry showing up alive in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny to rest almost immediately.

According to the writers, Doc is the first character in the series to be killed off permanently, as implied by the fact that his former medical clinic has been converted into a memorial museum dedicated to this character, as with the trophy Lightning McQueen wins at the very beginning of the film. In Cars 3, he appeared in flashbacks using unused dialogue from the first film. Fillmore, however, was given a new voice actor for this film due to the death of George Carlin, and Red actually lost his voice altogether due to the death of Joe Ranftnote but Joe's death happened before the original Cars was even released. But then again, Red never talked all that much.

The Character Died with Him / int_ea4f62db	comment	Family Guy: Peter's mother Thelma died following the 2012 death of Phyllis Diller. After Carrie Fisher passed away in December 2016, her character Angela was initially written out of the show. Two years later, the episode "Pawtucket Pete" stated that Angela had died from drowning after swimming less than 20 minutes after she had eaten and showed Peter delivering the eulogy at her funeral. After Adam West's death in 2017, Mayor West was shown as a ghost (alongside Angela's ghost). A later episode revolves around having the high school renamed in his honor, followed by Brian and Quagmire engaging in a heated race to become Quahog's new mayor.

The Character Died with Him / int_f01496c4	comment	This has happened numerous times on The Archers, as it is such a Long Runner that actors are often in it for long enough to become elderly. Usually the death is offstage, but relatively soon after the actor's own death; a notable exception was Nelson Gabriel's death, which occurred after the character had been a tax exile for some time, still talked about by the other characters but not appearing.

The Character Died with Him / int_f6a1016f	comment	Played with in The Matrix. The Oracle's original actress, Gloria Foster, succumbed to diabetes between the second and third films. Mary Alice took over the role for the third movie but, rather than go with an Other Darrin situation, the "death" was actually made a plot point (two other programs had sold the Oracle's termination codes to the Merovingian in return for the safety of their daughter). Thus, as explained by the Oracle in the final movie, she is not truly the same being she used to be, although parts of her remain.
