Very bad news. Apparently he had had a long illness he didn't wish disclosed.

Sad, sad news. Such a talent gone.

He will be greatly missed by all.

I had the honor of meeting Richard Hatch multiple times at various conventions throughout the years. I can honestly say that he was the most kindhearted down-to-earth man. He was nice to fans and always took the time to listen to what people had to say. Long live Captain Apollo and we'll never forget Richard Hatch.

Here's a video from 2012...

I was shocked when I found out this morning.

I just met Hatch this past June, and he couldn't have been nicer.

R.I.P.

I was on road when I received a phone call. I was shocked, and bit surprised by the question if it was true, but a quick flash back he missed a back in October a Classic Mini Con with many other other other main characters. They had no answers on what was going on. Richard did keep his private life private.
