‘A Lot More In Common Than You Think’: Jennifer Lopez Pays Tribute to Robin Williams On His 10th Death Anniversary

As a die-hard fan who has grown up watching the magic of Robin Williams unfold on the silver screen, it is truly heartbreaking to reflect on the fact that it’s been ten years since we lost this extraordinary talent. I still remember the first time I watched Jack, a film that not only showcased Williams at his comedic best but also touched my heart with his portrayal of the complex character Jack.


On the 10th anniversary of Robin William’s passing, Jennifer Lopez posted a heartfelt tribute to him on her social media platforms. They had previously collaborated in the movie “Jack,” which premiered in 1996.

On a reflective note, I took to my Instagram last Sunday to honor my beloved former co-star from our timeless film “JACK,” the extraordinary Robin Williams. In the post’s caption, I penned, “It’s remarkable how many shared experiences we all have, if only we take the time to look.” As we celebrate 28 years since this movie graced our screens, I can’t help but cherish the memories and laughter brought to us by Robin Williams on Cinema Sunday.

In the performance, the artist added a scene reminiscent of the well-known movie titled “A Film About an Unusually Mature Ten-Year-Old Boy Named Jack.” This movie revolves around Jack, who, due to his peculiar condition, appears older than he is. Consequently, he encounters numerous challenges at school but ultimately overcomes them by earning the respect of his peers. In this film, the character of Jack is brought to life by the late actor, while Miss Marquez, Jack’s teacher, is portrayed by Lopez.

Robin Williams significantly marked the film industry with his exceptional acting skills. Not only did he win the hearts of viewers worldwide, but he also earned the utmost respect and adoration from his fellow professionals in the field. To this day, he remains one of the most esteemed actors within the industry.

In 2014, the tragic news of the actor’s death left everyone stunned. He took his own life at the age of 63, an event that came as a shock to many due to its sudden and unexpected nature. His demise was deeply felt by his vast fanbase, as they had grown close to him through his heartwarming performances. Millions were touched by his presence on screen.

Zachary Pym Williams, the actor’s 41-year-old son, posted a tribute remembering his father as well. He shared a snapshot from his father’s 1978 film, Mork & Mindy. In an emotional message, he penned down, “Dad, it’s hard to accept that it’s been 10 years.”

Zac added that he reflected on the love that his father shared with his family, friends, and everyone he met. He continued, “You continue to inspire me every single day to do whatever I can to help create a more connected and loving world for our family.” Zac concluded the caption with, “Love you forever.”

Over the course of his lengthy acting career spanning several decades, Williams has made a lasting impact by featuring in numerous films that inspire us. Some of the notable movies he starred in are Good Will Hunting, Dead Poet’s Society, Mrs. Doubtfire, Good Morning, Vietnam, Aladdin, Jumanji, Night At The Museum, and many others.
