On January 25, 2022, Michael Madsen — the gravel-voiced actor synonymous with tough-guy roles in Quentin Tarantino films — suffered a devastating personal tragedy when his son, Hudson, died by suicide in Hawaii. Madsen, whose own career has spanned more than four decades, has long been a fixture of Hollywood’s gritty underbelly, with iconic turns in Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill, and Donnie Brasco. Known for his menacing screen presence, poetic writings, and troubled off-screen life, Madsen has become both a cult figure and a cautionary tale in the entertainment industry.
