Mad Max star Vincent Gil has died at the age of 83.
The star was best known for playing Nightrider in the cult 1979 classic.
The star's death comes following reports the Hollywood actor had been "frail for some time".
Vincent was best known for his role of Nightrider in Mad Max.
His friend and Mad Max co-star Paul 'Cundalini' Johnstone announced his passing over the weekend, and broke the news on Facebook alongside a recent snap of the two stars posing together.
He captioned the image: "Sadly, it is true... Vince Gil has left us. He's been very frail for quite some time and mercifully no longer needs to be constrained by his mortal form."
Paul then went on to share one of his favourite memories involving his late friend, which took place during a tour of Japan in 2015.
"He was already in less-than-ideal health, and in the opening days a couple of us were concerned about his ability to get through the long demanding days of convention and socialising and travel and convention," he recalled.
"We need not have been concerned," Paul continued. "Vince was remarkable - he rose to the occasion every time, fed off the energy of the wonderful Japanese fans, and on the occasions when I'd glance at him and be worried about his ability to keep going, he'd shrug off any concerns and showed that he had a lot more stamina than many of we much younger men."
Paul concluded his touching tribute to his late friend with a reference to a scene from his biggest movie, Mad Max.
"Rest well old friend - we will remember you when we look at the night sky," he wrote on Facebook on Sunday.
Australian actor Vincent was born in Sydney in 1939 and appeared in a number of features and films before appearing in Mad Max, including; Stone, Solo, Against The Wind and
