E! reported that Michael Showers' body was found floating in the Mississipi River.
A steamboat captain spotted him yesterday at around 11:15 am in waters near New Orleans' French Quarter. The chief investigator for the Orleans Parish coroner's office estimated that Showers' body had been in the water for 2 days. An autopsy will be performed to determine cause of death.
Michael Showers, 45, was from Chalmette, a village in southeast Louisiana situated on the east bank of the Mississippi River.
A few months ago, he had a recurring role in the second season of Tremé as Captain John Guidry (4 episodes). He also guest starred in Breaking Bad and The Vampire Diaries and he recently had a small part in the Terrence Malick movie 'The Tree of Life'.
May he rest in peace.

ReplyDeleteaccording to IMDB "the man"
ReplyDeleteIMBD (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0795297/) says he appeared in 1x15 "A few good men" as 'the man'. Which is not really helpful.
ReplyDeletethat is sad :(
ReplyDeletePretty sure he was the guy that Isobel compelled to come warn Elena not to look for her and then stepped in front of a bus.
ReplyDeleteOh no...I remember that.
ReplyDeleteAnd now he's dead again.
:(
The guy who worked for Isobel, killed Isobel's childhood friend and told Elena to back off, I think. He was only in one episode.
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrible way to die. How sad.
ReplyDeleteI feel sorry for the man and his family.
