Patrick Stewart, the British Shakespearean actor who became a Hollywood megastar through roles in the \u201cStar Trek\u201d and \u201cX-Men\u201d franchises, has died at the age of 86, an official statement said Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe announce with great sorrow the passing of Sir Patrick Stewart yesterday at his home in Los Angeles, in the loving care of his beloved wife Sunny, following a brief and poignant journey with Alzheimer\u2019s Disease and Lewy Body Dementia,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n

The actor, who hailed from the northern English region of Yorkshire, trod the boards in Britain with the Royal Shakespeare Company before crossing the Atlantic to enjoy an acclaimed career on the US stage and screen.<\/p>\n

His best known Hollywood roles were as Captain Jean-Luc Picard in \u201cStar Trek: The Next Generation\u201d and Professor Charles Xavier in multiple \u201cX-Men\u201d and related Marvel films.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis sonorous voice and singular talent will forever be synonymous with indelible performances in every genre,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe explored the human condition in all its poetic complexity and brought hope not only to the far reaches of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but into science fiction\u2019s most iconic final frontier aboard the Starship Enterprise.\u201d<\/p>\n
