What was behind this Man "Jose Wilker"?

José Wilker de Almeida (20 August 1947 – 5 April 2014) was a Brazilian film, stage and television actor and director.

How he Died ? It is because of a Heart Attack.


How did he start his Ultimate Career ? 

Wilker was born on 20 August 1947 in Juazeiro do Norte. He started his career as a radio announcer at a radio in Ceará, where he was born. He moved to  and worked in the theater as a member of Movimento de Cultura Popular (MPC). The group brought culture and lessons in reading, writing, and politics. MPC was banned during the military repression in the 1960s, and Wilker moved to Rio de Janeiro.

How did he Leave us ? Wilker Died on 5 April 2014. He is no more with us. Now, so he can't watch FIFA 14. Sad... Rest in Peace and watch FIFA 14 from heaven. 

Brazil lost a living legend with the passing of José Wilker on Saturday, April 5. The veteran actor was found dead from an apparent heart attack at the age of 66 in his Rio de Janeiro home. No official cause of death has been revealed, but Wilker has left an emptiness in the Brazilian telenovela world. Celebrities have taken to social media to express their sadness and remember the legacy that he left. The actor had just finished his on-air appearance earlier this year in Globo's primetime series "Amor à Vida" where he played the tenacious Dr. Herbert. From all the messages gathered, he was a kind, professional and loyal colleague with a great sense of humor.
Writer Aguinaldo Silva who worked with him for years and gave him one of his biggest breaks when Wilker took the male lead of "Roque Santeiro" in 1985. "I knew him since 1961, we used to live in Recife," Silva wrote on Twitter. "We worked on dozens of projects together. He was too young to die. Without José Wilker we are less and and more poor. I disconnected all the phones. I don't want nobody to ask me what I think about his death. I am sad. I died a little. I don't know what to say." Renata Sorrah who worked with the actor in various telenovelas including "Senhora Do Destino" and "Duas Caras" said, "He knew a lot about cinema, and also about life."
