Spaghetti Western & 'Spider-Man' Icon, Jack Betts, Passes Away at 96

Jack Betts, known for appearing in dozens of the most classic series, Spaghetti Westerns, and the 2002 Spider-Man as Henry Balkan, has died. According to Variety, the 96-year-old character actor died on June 19 in his sleep at his home in Los Osos, California, as reported by his nephew. The actor was close friends with Everybody Loves Raymond star Doris Roberts, and the pair often attended events together before she died in 2016. 2002 was the year Betts caught the attention of younger generations, portraying Balkan, an executive who sat on the board of Oscorp Technologies alongside its wealthy company founder Norman Osborn before he became the Green Goblin. However, his iconic career spanned decades before that role even came along.
