'Hook' Star Dante Basco Honors the Late Robin Williams in Heartfelt Birthday Post

‘Hook’ Star Dante Basco Honors the Late Robin Williams in Heartfelt Birthday Post. This last Saturday (July 24th) would have marked Robin William’s 70th Birthday, and fans and co-stars of the late actor paid tribute online to honor the late actor. One such post was shared by Williams’ ‘Hook’ co-star Dante Basco (Rufio).

Basco posted a backstage photo from the hit film to Instagram along with the caption: “I just wanted to say happy birthday to #RobinWilliams. This is a picture on the Sony lot during shooting when my brothers & cousin came to visit & we gave him a hat we made at Compton Indoor swap meet. We embroidered the name of our crew we created after watching #DeadPoetsSociety, it was the address of the garage we all lived in together growing up, “13607 1/2”. We wrote poems and raps and tried to live like they did in the movie & “suck the marrow out of life.” He’ll never know how much he’s impacted my life… O captain, my captain… You are the Pan!“
