‘Nip/Tuck's Joely Richardson Pays Tribute To 'Hugely Charismatic' Julian McMahon: 'You Lived A Large Life My Friend'

Joely Richardson shared a tribute to her late Nip/Tuck co-star Julian McMahon following his recent death, commemorating the time they spent together on the breakout Ryan Murphy medical drama in which they played two points on a major love triangle also featuring Dylan Walsh. 'Woke up to the shocking news of Julian McMahon's passing at 56. I can't believe it. We worked together for many years, covering every possible storyline and then some,' she began on Instagram, posting archival cover stories of the trio from Entertainment Weekly and TV Guide. More from Deadline Alyssa Milano Remembers Julian McMahon As "More Than My TV Husband" On 'Charmed': "He Made Me Feel Safe As An Actor" Julian McMahon Tributes: 'Charmed', 'Nip/Tuck' & 'Fantastic Four' Co-Stars Remember "Force Of Brilliance, Wild Talent And Humor" Julian McMahon Dies: 'Nip/Tuck', 'Fantastic Four', 'FBI: Most Wanted' Star Was 56 In the genre-bending series, Walsh's Dr. Sean McNamara is a plastic surgeon and family man with a strained marriage to Richardson's Julia, who is in love with his business partner, the roguish Dr. Christian Troy (McMahon). 'Julian could be hysterically funny, was hugely charismatic (drama swirled in his wake), and most of the female population fell for him as 'Christian Troy,'' Richardson continued. 'Ouff this is hard to write— seminal times we all shared, led by the insanely talented @ryanmurphyproductions, our ace producer Micheal [sic] Robin, beloveds @stephfowlermakeup @eyrichlou @kruegermekash — the whole team. Our love triangle with my tv husband Dylan Walsh (together you were giggly schoolmates).' Running for six seasons on FX, Nip/Tuck established McMahon as a leading man, earning him a Golden Globe nomination. Richardson concluded, 'This has taken me back, and ABACK. I remember our 1st script reading, we knew we were onto something but no clue what a ride we were about to have— Julian suggested we do a meditation to quell nerves (we didn't do it). I remember presenting with you at the Emmys when our autocue cut out and we somehow improvised our way through it on live tv. I remember the year we both got Golden Globe nominations and our show won best tv series— your mom, sat beside you, beamed with pride. I remember the episode when we all had to age up with prosthetics— how we laughed then, and how it's making me cry today. My enormous condolences to your family and children. You lived a large life my friend, Bravo 🌟.' Aside from Nip/Tuck, McMahon is best known for his starring roles in Charmed, FBI: Most Wanted and the 2000s Fantastic Four movies. He died July 2 in Clearwater, Fla. from a private battle with cancer. Following the news of his death, tributes poured in from loved ones and co-stars, including fellow Nip/Tuck actors Kelly Carlson and Walsh, who shared a statement with Deadline.

Former Boston Bruins enforcer and radio host Lyndon "LB" Byers dies at 61

Former Boston Bruin and radio host Lyndon "LB" Byers has died, the team confirmed on Saturday. He was 61 years old. Born in Saskatchewan, Byers was drafted by the Bruins in 1982 and played nine seasons with the team from 1983 to 1992. He then played one season with the San Jose Sharks before leaving the NHL in 1993. He finished his hockey career by playing more than two seasons in the now-defunct International Hockey League. During his NHL career, he amassed 24 points and 1,081 penalty minutes. "Lyndon was a fan favorite across his nine seasons in the black and gold thanks to his rugged, rough-and-tumble style and was a key cog on the B's teams that made trips to the Stanley Cup final in 1988 and 1990," the Bruins said in a statement posted on Facebook, where they said they were "deeply saddened" by his death. "Lyndon became a true Bostonian and we will miss him dearly. He is forever a part of our Bruins family." After retiring from hockey, Byers spent more than 20 years as a radio host on WAAF before quitting in 2019. He also made several appearances on the TV show "Rescue Me," starring Bruins fan and Worcester native Denis Leary, as well as cameos in the movies "Shallow Hal" and "Stuck On You." Byers is survived by his wife, Annie, and son, Will. A cause of death was not given.

So Long, ‘Anthem,' See Ya In the Skies

In February 2019, Dragon Age and Mass Effect developer BioWare released Anthem, a third-person shooter about human Freelancers donning armored Javelin suits to fight monsters and various factions. After seven years, EA is permanently taking the live-service game down on January 12, 2026, and with it, a chapter in the studio's modern era is forever gone. To know Anthem is to know its tumultuous life; the game famously suffered from crunch and internal struggles owing to BioWare's knowledge of separately developing multiplayer games and third-person shooters—thanks, respectively, to Star Wars: The Old Republic and its Mass Effect series—but not having the expertise to make an ongoing multiplayer third-person shooter. But at the time, we didn't know that; we just saw a game with four-player co-op about flying around big, expansive environments in sick mech suits with cool powers. At a time when the live-service shooter market was mainly just Destiny 2 and Warframe, it seemed like this could be another winner in that lineup. But that didn't happen. While it had a really great initial reveal, Anthem launched to mixed reviews and players running out of things to do fast. BioWare tried to steer things in a better direction with free DLC and a proposed rework, even going so far as to detail what specific ideas they hoped to implement. From increased drop rates to sky pirates and deeper Javelin build customization, it all sounded promising in concept, and seemed like the type of reboot that could really turn things around. Come 2021, EA opted to end future development; BioWare refocused on single-player games with the Mass Effect remasters and Dragon Age: The Veilguard, the latter of which started as a live-service game and had those elements mostly stripped out. Anthem's place in video game history is…kind of complicated. Its short life aside, it actually did fairly well commercially, with 5 million copies sold within its lifetime. Over the years, I've revisited it on PC and PlayStation and it's generally been easy to join or start a session. That clearly shows signs of an affection for the game, and in the time before EA's fateful decision, there was genuine support at it potentially getting a second shot at life a la Final Fantasy XIV and Destiny: The Taken King. That turnaround was somewhat undermined by the weeks and months leading up to the game's release, where it was nitpicked to hell and back and people were cynical enough to openly hope the game would fail. Some thought it didn't look good and was forced onto the developer by EA, others were just being mean and decided this was the game to dunk on because it represented current gaming trends they didn't like. Not a condemnation, just a general fact: every year, there's at least one triple-A game everyone decides to work their industry frustrations out on, and that year, it just happened to be Anthem. That doesn't take any of the sting away when the object of ire is something you enjoyed and wished others would understand why or lighten up on, or how that desire for blood has evolved into full-on hate campaigns and harassment toward developers of more recent titles. But Anthem's true legacy is one of a dodged bullet: over the years, similar attempts by publishers to end Destiny 2's reign (and that of fellow live-service giants like Fortnite and GTA Online) haven't exactly gone to plan. In many cases, those games' ends hit much harder than Anthem, and these days, a game's end can take much (or all) of a developer's staff with it. Not all of them get the dignity of having their servers left intact, let alone for nearly an entire decade. In that sense, BioWare was lucky, but only just so. Pre-release, Anthem was viewed by the optimistic as a potential redemption for the studio following the underperformance of 2017's Mass Effect: Andromeda, which has since had its own moment in the sun despite an equally rocky development and initial mixed reception. Anthem is arguably more of a black mark on the studio more than Andromeda since it was a new IP that lacked the safety net of an established franchise. Since both games' releases, questions of BioWare's future have grown in volume alongside the realization EA has repeatedly jerked the studio around on its recent projects and foisted unrealistic expectations foisted on those games. (And this isn't the only EA subsidiary burdened with this.) The publisher just wants its money makers, but lacks the sense to get out of its own way and let the developers do what they do best so to can make the hits they're all capable of, a troubling trend throughout 2025 and years past. Saying Anthem is going out with a whimper might be generous; unlike Star Wars Battlefront II's recent resurgence, it never really had a moment to reinvigorate its player base. (A Steam release might've made that possible.) Most seemed content to move on unless it was time to talk about BioWare and EA's current issues, or ill-advised live-service forays that seemed a good idea years earlier. Maybe that'll change closer to the servers going offline in January, maybe former developers will reminisce or throw shade about its rocky development or what they hoped to do with that rework. Regardless, the game we got is the game we got, and for all the snarking about it that's due to come in the next six months, there'll likely be about as much fond memories of its initial potential and those fun moments of flying around and pulling off combos in between the monotony and grind. At best, Anthem is passable bordering on Fine, but now comes off like a miracle that it got to exist and have enough time to breathe before it met its unceremonious end. Will always wish it were better and got to see its course correction through to the end, but at least I got some barrel rolls and good music out of the experience. Want more io9 news?
