Robin Williams’ Last Film: What Was It, 11 Years After We Lost Him?

Though he tragically left us over a decade ago at the age of 63, Robin Williams managed to leave an indelible mark on the film industry multiple times. Whether he was playing an epicurean teacher in “Dead Poets Society,” facing a troubled Matt Damon in the wonderful “Good Will Hunting,” lighting up the screen with his mischievous Peter Pan in “Hook,” or dressing up as a nanny in “Mrs. Doubtfire,” this unparalleled actor consistently moved us—making us shiver, cry, thrill, and burst into laughter.

An Unforgettable Performer

From “Jumanji” to “Patch Adams,” spanning through “Good Morning, Vietnam,” “Awakenings,” and “Aladdin,” Robin Williams brought a range of emotions to his audience, ultimately leaving a profound sadness with his premature departure in 2014.

But after these many memorable cinematic moments, what were the last feature films in which this famous actor appeared?

Following the death of Robin Williams, several films in which he had acted continued to be released.

Five Posthumous Films

In addition to the comedies “A Merry Friggin’ Christmas” and “The Angriest Man in Brooklyn” (in which his character believed he had only 90 minutes to live), which went straight to video in France, he also played the lead role in the drama “Boulevard.” In this film directed by Dito Montiel, released in 2014 in the United States and in May 2016 in French theaters, he portrayed a conventional bank employee who drastically reevaluates his everyday life and his sexuality.

In 2015, Robin Williams also graced us with a third “Night at the Museum,” reprising his role as Theodore Roosevelt opposite Ben Stiller in “Secret of the Tomb.” Lastly, in the same year, his voice could be heard one final time in cinemas, as he lent it to Dennis the dog in the sci-fi comedy “Absolutely Anything,” alongside Simon Pegg and Kate Beckinsale.

This vocal performance reminds us of one of Robin Williams’ greatest roles, also a vocal one: his legendary portrayal of the Genie in “Aladdin,” where he was able to showcase all his whimsy, humor, and improvisational talent.
