Roy Scheider is Dead

Roy Scheider, best known as Sheriff "We're going to need a bigger boat" Brody in the first two Jaws movies (no, he sat out Jaws 3-D) could not escape the jaws of death (you knew that was coming). Mr. Scheider was 75. A fun fact: he was almost cast as John Rambo in the original First Blood until Sylvester Stallone beat him out. Crazy! He was also on a show called seaQuest, which was like Star Trek underwater, but with no sharks that I am aware of. And he was nominated for Best Actor for All That Jazz (let's now picture Melanie doing the jazz hands).
