"Karate Kid" and "Deadwood" star Peter Jason has died, Fox News Digital confirmed. The actor, prominent in Hollywood for five decades, was 80 years old.

Prolific character actor and Karate Kid star Peter Jason has died at 80. Jason’s death was reported on Thursday by some of his former colleagues, including Halloween director John Carpenter and Titanic star Billy Zane, and later confirmed by multiple outlets. A cause of death was not immediately announced.

That’s because the final scene that they ended up shooting together paid homage to the first time that their characters met – and their feud began – in the original film 41 years ago. ‘October 31, 1983, was the first day of shooting of the Karate Kid film. It was Halloween, so I remember the date,’ he recollected.
