Sir Christopher Lee has died at the age of 93 after being hospitalised for respiratory problems and heart failure.
The veteran actor, best known for a variety of films from Dracula to The Wicker Man through to the Lord of the Rings trilogy, passed away on Sunday morning at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London, according to sources.
The decision to release the news days after was based on his wife’s desire to inform family members first. The couple had been married for over 50 years.
As well as his career in film, Lee also released a series of heavy metal albums, including Charlemagne: The Omens of Death. He was knighted in 2009 for services to drama and charity and was awarded the Bafta fellowship in 2011.

Christopher Lee is the latest celeb to fall victim to a death hoax
See more news, pictures and video.

 

News of actor Christopher Lee’s death spread quickly earlier this week causing concern among fans across the world. However the June 2015 report has now been confirmed as a complete hoax and just the latest in a string of fake celebrity death reports. Thankfully, the actor best known for his roles in The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings or Count Dracula is alive and well.

UPDATE 11/06/2015 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Christopher Lee death hoax spreads on Facebook

Rumors of the actor’s alleged demise gained traction on Tuesday after a ‘R.I.P. Christopher Lee’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the British actor’s passing:

“
At about 11 a.m. ET on Tuesday (June 09, 2015), our beloved actor Christopher Lee passed away. Christopher Lee was born on May 27, 1922 in London. He will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.
”

Hundreds of fans immediately started writing their messages of condolence on the Facebook page, expressing their sadness that the talented 93-year-old actor was dead. And as usual, Twittersphere was frenzied over the death hoax.

Where as some trusting fans believed the post, others were immediately skeptical of the report, perhaps learning their lesson from the huge amount of fake death reports emerging about celebrities over recent months. Some pointed out that the news had not been carried on any major British network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of an actor of Christopher Lee's stature would be major news across networks.

A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that a large majority (84%) of respondents think those Christopher Lee death rumors are not funny anymore.

Christopher Lee Death Hoax Dismissed Since Actor Is ‘Alive And Well’

On Wednesday (June 10) the actor's reps officially confirmed that Christopher Lee is not dead. “He joins the long list of celebrities who have been victimized by this hoax. He's still alive and well, stop believing what you see on the Internet,” they said.

Some fans have expressed anger at the fake report saying it was reckless, distressing and hurtful to fans of the much loved actor. Others say this shows his extreme popularity across the globe.
