Emmy-winning actor Bill Paxton died due to complications from surgery, PEOPLE confirms.

“It is with heavy hearts we share the news that Bill Paxton has passed away due to complications from surgery,” a family representative said in a statement. “A loving husband and father, Bill began his career in Hollywood working on films in the art department and went on to have an illustrious career spanning four decades as a beloved and prolific actor and filmmaker. Bill’s passion for the arts was felt by all who knew him, and his warmth and tireless energy were undeniable. We ask to please respect the family’s wish for privacy as they mourn the loss of their adored husband and father.”

The Texas native, who won an Emmy for his work in the TV mini-series Hatfields and McCoys, began acting in the 1970s. His earliest acting credits include minor roles in blockbusters such as Terminator (1984) and Aliens (1986).

Paxton’s notable performances include playing Morgan Earp in Tombstone (1993), Fred Haise in Apollo 13 (1995), the lead role in the 1996 hit Twister and as treasure hunter Brock Lovett in Titanic (1997).

Just ****ing horrible.

RIP Bill you were one of my all time favorite actors.

Most likely a stroke during/after valve replacement surgery. It's a huge threat for that kind of surgery.

And it's a shame. Reading up about the guy, it appears Paxton was the kind of actor who was admired by the boom operators, set personnel, as well as other actors. The guy who knew their names, and didn't forget a face.

Travel Well, BP.

Damn, too young, such a talent too.

I was scheduled for back surgery Tuesday but have canceled due to a lingering cold and a bad case of the flu within our home the last month.

Just didn't want to take that chance.

This isn't a jihadist thing, is it? Because I may have an obligation to tell someone.

Hope you don't die tomorrow.

I'll never forget watching Aliens with my JW family and they found Bill Paxton's death so horrifying and profanity-filled they demanded I turn the movie off.

Well played, Bill.
