Tim Curry's cause of death revealed a week after his passing.

The cause of death of British actor Tim Curry has been revealed nearly a week after his passing on August 25, 2026, at the age of 80 in his home in Toluca Lake, Los Angeles. According to documents obtained by the magazine People from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, Curry died due to coronary artery disease. His medical records also noted significant contributing factors such as a history of stroke and kidney cancer, though neither was considered the underlying cause of death. Curry did not undergo surgical interventions for any of these conditions. His representative stated he passed away peacefully at home. The Los Angeles Police Department confirmed that officers responded to a residence in North Hollywood on August 25 to investigate the death of a man in his 80s. Curry had suffered a severe stroke in 2012, which led him to step back from his acting career and focus on voice-over work. In September 2025, during an event celebrating the 50th anniversary of 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show,' Curry spoke about the lingering effects of his stroke, including difficulty walking and ongoing issues with his left leg.
