Paul A legendary actor, a kind and generous soul with charities. One of the longest and best marriages to Joann Woodward. Our family was close to him thru the Penske racing team. I cannot imagine losing a child. God bless us all. 🙏❤️🙏

Sad he couldn't overcome his demons, but it sounds like Mr. Newman was trying to prevent this from happening to other people. May they all RIP. So sorry he lost his son. It's difficult when a parent has to bury a child. TY for sharing this. God Bless You & stay safe.

I met him in person. He was with Tom Cruise and very kind.

For years, I've watched many times "The Towering Inferno" and often wondered who the handsome young firefighter was. Tonight, I finally learned it was Paul Newman's son. Such a tragedy.

Aww Poor guy. My Mom RIP liked Paul Newman. He probably felt guilty but I hope he knew it wasn't his fault.

I think that, about the worst thing you can do, when your father or mother is one of the biggest stars ever is trying to make it into the same profession. He could have chosen anything, but not acting.

Never stood a chance in that Satanic world.

[clayton]

He was a good actor but he mostly played himself. Just a good leading man
