Maybe this will jog someone's memory. Daniel Von Bargen was a character actor who stereotypically portrayed (on more than one occasion) a cop or a sheriff. Silence of The Lambs, O' Brother Where Art Thou, The Postman, Super Troopers, oops, I just realized I'm giving this away.
Anyway, he was in the news about 3 years ago when he attempted suicide by shooting himself in the head and made a 911 call after he did it. From that point on, there was very little information (that I could find) if any, about his condition, ( it was serious, I mean he shot himself in the head) and 2 days ago I was surfing the web for something and I happened to notice that he had died earlier this year.
Complications from diabetes according to IMDB. Apparently, when he shot himself he was about to have a few of his toes amputated and this distressed him. He already had one of his legs removed at that time, so I can see why he was distraught.
Rest in peace Daniel Von Bargen. You will be missed.

The rule is against sequels to get TO actors that appear in both films. There's no rule against cameos to get to actors that are not in the first movie (ie, even if it were a sequel, it would be okay

Mickey Rourke
the Expendables
(I skipped another one that was obvious for me.)

Ah, the 3 steps here have to go:
actor from the Expendables (other than Mickey Rourke)
movie that other actor was in
different actor from that same movie
You did Step 1 three times instead of steps 1-3.
Please pick 1 actor and perform the other steps,
preferably leaving us with an actor we can work with.
(The other "obvious" movie for me was Iron Man 2.
Rourke played Vanko, the most obvious villain in the movie.)
