Apparently his wife and dog were also found dead, which makes it seem like it may have been something along the lines of a Carbon Monoxide leak.

One of the true greats! I think his role in THE QUICK AND THE DEAD may have been my favorite.

That scene between him, Leonardo Dicaprio and Russell Crowe in the gunsmith's shop is great among many others.

'The French Connection' is one of my favourite films and the sequel is no slouch either.  Hackman is great in both even though by all accounts he didn't like the character.

RIP.

Gene was found by a partially open back door Betsy was found in the bathroom (I believe on the floor)....
What we know so far, they tested negative for Carbon Monoxide, & may have been dead up to nine days...

I think the wife poisoned him and the dog, then herself.
