Moll’s death was confirmed by Jeff Sanderson, a publicist at Chasen & Company, per ABC News.

The famous actor went on to pursue a slightly different path in the world of entertainment upon the conclusion of the show. Moll expanded his portfolio by taking on a number of voice acting roles, lending his talents to various video games, comic book projects and television shows like “Spider-Man: The Animated Series” and “Batman: The Animated Series,” according to TMZ.
Moll also had acting roles in “Ghost Shark,” “Slay Belles” and in the satire films, “But I’m a Cheerleader” and “Scary Movie 2.” He lent his talents to “Jingle all the Way,” “The Flintstones” and “Thomas Kinkade’s Christmas Cottage.” (RELATED: Famous Actor From ‘Shaft’ Dead At 81)
