According to The Hollywood Reporter, he died of cardiac complications on Thursday, June 3 while surrounded by his wife and children, including Blake Lively and actress Robyn Lively.

"I moved to Utah because of the snow, but I haven't been able to ski. I literally didn't have the heart to do it," he shared "Now, I'm excited about living the rest of my life instead of sitting around."

The "Passenger 57" actor also expressed excitement about his growing family, revealing, "My youngest daughter is newly married and wants a big family. She says she wants 30 kids. I said, 'Why don't you start with one?'"

His comments came just over a year after Blake married Ryan Reynolds, who is the father of her three daughters, Inez, 6, James, 4, and Betty, 8-months.
