He will forever be remembered for his unforgettable performance in Dances With Wolves. Now, the world is mourning the loss of beloved actor Graham Greene, who has passed away at the age of 73. “It is with deep sadness we announce the peaceful passing of award-winning legendary Canadian actor Graham Greene,” his manager Gerry Jordan said in a statement to CBC News.
Stared as a carpenter. Graham Greene was a powerhouse of talent, known for bringing a rare depth and empathy to every role he took on. Many remember his breakout performance as the Sioux leader Kicking Bird in Kevin Costner’s epic Dances With Wolves — a role that earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor. At 38, Graham Greene became the first Canadian to earn an acting nomination since fellow Indigenous performer Chief Dan George was recognized in 1971 for Little Big Man.
