Tom was a prominent figure in the film industry, with his illustrious career spanning several decades. His most notable roles include performances in Natural Born Killers, Black Hawk Down, Born On The Fourth Of July, and Heat.<\/p>\n

His last venture saw him step into the shoes of a police detective in the sci-fi flick Impuratus. His character evolves into a believer in the supernatural following the deathbed confession of a Civil War<\/a> veteran.<\/p>\n

In a previous interview with Age Of The Nerd, he expressed: “I enjoyed the script. It is a terrific leading part. It was a period piece, which was interesting, and I really like the people that were involved.”<\/p>\n

Tom shared his excitement about the film, revealing that he was impressed by an “early cut” and that he “can’t wait to see the final version with the music all in.”<\/p>\n

He further commented: “The quality was astounding, the acting (including some of mine, of course), but seriously everyone was outstanding and the photography superb.”<\/p>\n

During the conversation, Tom reflected on his 30-year-long career, attributing his success to his “passion for the work.” Tom is survived by his 17 year old twin sons, Jagger and Jayden Sizemore, whom he shares with Janelle McIntire. It’s likely that his estate, worth around $500,000 was left to the two boys.<\/p>\n
