Williams’ agent of 15 years, Barry McPherson, confirmed the news to People.

“He was killed this afternoon. He was making a left or a right [and] a car cut him off,” McPherson told the outlet.

“I’m just devastated. He was the nicest guy. He was so talented.”

“He was an actor’s actor. Filmmakers loved him. He’s been the heart of Hollywood since the late 1970s,” McPherson continued.

“He was really proud of his performance this year. He’s been so happy with the work that I got him. He’s had a balanced career.”

Williams had to be airlifted following the crash, which occurred on Monday at around 5pm, according to People.
