Ray Liotta and his career will be honored with a Hollywood Walk of Fame star.

Ray Liottas all-around career made him a triple threat, and sadly his passing was devastating to the entertainment world, said Ana Martinez , producer of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, in a statement. The characters he portrayed will always be etched in Hollywoods film history.

The posthumous honor on Feb. 24 in Los Angeles, California, will arrive nearly nine months after the actors unexpected death. Liotta died in his sleep at age 67 in late May while filming a movie called Dangerous Waters in the Dominican Republic.

Liotta wrapped and will soon be seen in Cocaine Bear , a dark comedy directed by actor Elizabeth Banks about a real-life incident in Georgia where a 175-pound black bear reportedly died of an overdose of cocaine after finding and eating it in a forest.

Liotta was most recently nominated for a Critics Choice Award for his role in the Apple TV+ series Black Bird . His co-star Paul Walter Hauser went on to win that trophy, as well as a Golden Globe only to rouse the audience into a standing ovation for the late actor.
