Patrick Muldoon
Performance in His Final Film Hailed as His Finest
Published
Patrick Muldoon‘s sudden death this week rocked fans and Hollywood … but TMZ has learned one of his last completed projects might help some heal.
As we reported … the film and TV star best known for his roles in “Days of Our Lives,” “Melrose Place,” and “Starship Troopers” died after suffering a heart attack on Sunday.
Kevin Interdonato, the writer-director of “Dirty Hands,” tells TMZ … the premiere for the crime thriller in which Patrick is the star, is tonight in New Jersey … and what was going to be a celebration of the film is now a celebration of Patrick.
The Saban Films project drops on Apple and Amazon this Friday … and Kevin tells us it’s been screened a couple of times for test audiences — and Patrick’s performance has been singled out as fantastic. The writer-director says it’s no joke … Patrick is freaking amazing in the flick.

Cast and crew are obviously in shock and heartbroken … especially since, as Kevin noted, the actor won’t get to enjoy the accolades from the film.
Producers wanted to add an official dedication card to the film … but we’re told there is not enough time with it dropping Friday … and pulling the release would have resulted in a few months’ delay.
Patrick was also an executive producer on a movie currently in production, “Kockroach,” starring Chris Hemsworth, Taron Egerton, and Zazie Beetz.
Patrick was 57.
RIP
