Not sure if it was posted but it sounds like it was likely covid.

Tommy "Tiny" Lister, best known for his roles in The Dark Knight and the Friday film series, has died at the age of 62.

While he had not tested positive for the novel coronavirus prior to his death, Lister died on Thursday after exhibiting "COVID symptoms" for a week, his manager Cindy Cowan tells PEOPLE.

"He was a gentle giant and one-of-a-kind," she says. "A man that's like been a brother to me for 20 years."

The actor was scheduled to work on a movie over the weekend, but had canceled on Friday, according to Cowan.

"He was just really complaining, but he was too weak to go to the doctor," she says.

According to Cowan, a friend went to check up on Lister at his home after he didn't return their calls.

Lister was found unresponsive at his apartment in Marina Del Rey, California, according to TMZ, who was first to report the news. The outlet reported that Lister was pronounced dead at the scene.

A cause of death has not been determined.

I can see Tiny arriving to pearly gates on his bike and St. Peter stating, "I'm tucking my jewelry in." as he goes to meet him.

RIP

He was a big part of my childhood as Zeus and later my preadolescent years as Deebo off the Friday movies.

2020 has been terrible, hug your loved ones and let them know you love them, you never know....
