We are heartbroken by this sudden loss, and we ask for privacy during this unbelievably difficult time,&#8221; their family said in a statement obtained by Variety and other outlets.<\/p>\n<p>Robert Reiner was born in the Bronx on March 6, 1947. As a young man, he set out to follow in his father&#8217;s footsteps into entertainment. He studied at the University of California, Los Angeles film school and, in the 1960s, began appearing in small parts in various television shows.<\/p>\n<p>Reiner grew up thinking his father, Carl Reiner, didn&#8217;t understand him or find him funny. But the younger Reiner would in many ways emulate his career, working both in front of and behind the camera.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My father thought, &#8216;Oh, my God, this poor kid is worried about being in the shadow of a famous father,'&#8221; Reiner told \u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/rob-reiner-spinal-tap-60-minutes\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">&#8220;60 Minutes&#8221;<\/a><\/span>\u00a0earlier this year, recalling the temptation to change his name. &#8220;And he says, &#8216;What do you want to change your name to?&#8217; And I said, &#8216;Carl.&#8217; I just wanted to be like him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/12\/15\/01403332-fe0e-412f-b4b6-a375b0a8fd6c\/thumbnail\/620x381\/6228eaddbeca409a7c019caf15662706\/ap25349135422926.jpg#\" alt=\"Carl Reiner,Rob Reiner \" height=\"381\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/12\/15\/01403332-fe0e-412f-b4b6-a375b0a8fd6c\/thumbnail\/620x381\/6228eaddbeca409a7c019caf15662706\/ap25349135422926.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/12\/15\/01403332-fe0e-412f-b4b6-a375b0a8fd6c\/thumbnail\/1240x762\/bad467e1fc29306d9e8a05d9d54761fe\/ap25349135422926.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">\u00a0Carl Reiner, left, and his son Rob Reiner pose together following their hand and footprint ceremony at the TCL Chinese Theatre, April 7, 2017, in Los Angeles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Chris Pizzello\/Invision\/AP<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>He added, &#8220;Norman Lear was the first person that got me.

Reiner told &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; that he thought the show would only last 13 weeks \u2014 but it went on to air for eight years, five of them as the top show in the country.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/12\/15\/c3ae309b-0715-43ba-8497-915c6a587bdb\/thumbnail\/620x414\/14c6777fd3dfa380b23ba52b69e951c9\/ap25349154030007.jpg#\" alt=\"Rob Reiner \" height=\"414\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/12\/15\/c3ae309b-0715-43ba-8497-915c6a587bdb\/thumbnail\/620x414\/14c6777fd3dfa380b23ba52b69e951c9\/ap25349154030007.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/12\/15\/c3ae309b-0715-43ba-8497-915c6a587bdb\/thumbnail\/1240x828\/669e9f45b3c071e7c16d52c284d39f7e\/ap25349154030007.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">Sally Struthers plants a kiss on the cheek of Rob Reiner, right, Carroll O&#8217;Connor and Jean Stapleton hold hands during a reunion of the cast of &#8220;All in the Family,&#8221; on Feb. 12, 1991, in Beverly Hills, Calif.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Chris Martinez \/ AP<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;I remember reading the script and thinking, this is such good writing, this is so edgy and so brilliant,&#8221; he told &#8220;<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/rob-reiners-quest-for-simple-perfection\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">CBS Sunday Morning<\/a><\/span>&#8221; in 2010. &#8220;There&#8217;s no way that this is going to fly on American television.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Reiner was five times nominated for an Emmy for his performance on the show, winning in 1974 and 1978.

The sequel, &#8220;Spinal Tap II: The End Continues,&#8221; was released this fall. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well, people would say, &#8216;I can&#8217;t believe your first movie would be improvised, there&#8217;d be no script. And that&#8217;s scary.&#8217; And, to me, it was the opposite. I wasn&#8217;t scared,&#8221; he told &#8220;60 Minutes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The film kicked off a four-year stretch that resulted in a trio of American classics \u2014 &#8220;Stand By Me&#8221; (1986), &#8220;The Princess Bride&#8221; (1987) and &#8220;When Harry Met Sally \u2026&#8221; (1989)\u00a0 \u2014 all of them among the most often quoted movies of the 20th century.<\/p>\n<p>Reiner told &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; that &#8220;Stand by Me,&#8221; his 1986 film adaptation of the Stephen King novella &#8220;The Body,&#8221; was in many ways based on his relationship with his father.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m writing this scene, I&#8217;m crying. I actually cry. When I was making it I knew that he loved me and he did understand me, but as a little boy that&#8217;s what I felt,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>The movie, about four boys who go looking for the dead body of a missing boy, became a coming-of-age classic, making breakthroughs of its young cast, particularly River Phoenix. One of those co-stars, Jerry O&#8217;Connell, spoke to &#8220;CBS Mornings&#8221; on Monday and described the news as &#8220;just surreal.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Rob was like a father to me,&#8221; O&#8217;Connell said. &#8220;Everything I have is because of Rob Reiner.

Everyone from Fran\u00e7ois Truffaut to Robert Redford had considered adapting Goldman&#8217;s book, but it ultimately fell to Reiner (from Goldman&#8217;s own script) to capture the unique comic tone of &#8220;The Princess Bride.&#8221; But only once he had Goldman&#8217;s blessing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At the door he greeted me and he said, &#8216;This is my baby. I want this on my tombstone. This is my favorite thing I&#8217;ve ever written in my life. What are you going to do with it?'&#8221; Reiner recalled in a Television Academy interview. &#8220;And we sat down with him and started going through what I thought should be done with the film.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Though only a modest success in theaters, the movie \u2014 starring Cary Elwes, Mandy Patinkin, Wallace Shawn, Andr\u00e9 the Giant and Robin Wright \u2014 would grow in stature over the years, leading to countless impressions of Inigo Montoya&#8217;s vow of revenge and the risky nature of land wars in Asia.<\/p>\n<p>For the next four decades, Reiner, a warm and gregarious presence on screen and an outspoken liberal advocate off it, remained a constant fixture in Hollywood. The production company he co-founded, Castle Rock Entertainment, launched an enviable string of hits, including &#8220;Seinfeld&#8221; and &#8220;The Shawshank Redemption.&#8221; By the turn of the century, its success rate had fallen considerably, but Reiner revived it earlier this decade. This fall, Reiner and Castle Rock released the long-in-coming sequel\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/spinal-tap-2-movie-review-99d9a9b05b1dd9c33987be70763f34f5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">&#8220;Spinal Tap II: The End Continues.&#8221;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What are we, crazy to do another one?

He was co-founder of the American Foundation for Equal Rights, which challenged in court California&#8217;s ban on same-sex marriage, Proposition 8. He also chaired the campaign for Prop 10, a California initiative to fund early childhood development services with a tax on tobacco products. Reiner was also an outspoken critic of President Trump.<\/p>\n<p>That ran in the family, too. Reiner&#8217;s father opposed the Communist hunt of McCarthyism in the 1950s and his mother, Estelle Reiner, a singer and actor, protested the Vietnam War.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you&#8217;re a nepo baby, doors will open,&#8221; Reiner told The Guardian in 2024. &#8220;But you have to deliver. If you don&#8217;t deliver, the door will close just as fast as it opened.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Reiner was married to Penny Marshall, the actor and filmmaker, for 10 years beginning in 1971. Like Reiner, Marshall experienced sitcom fame with &#8220;Laverne &amp; Shirley,&#8221; but found a more lasting legacy behind the camera. Marshall\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/penny-marshall-dead-laverne-shirley-star-cause-of-death-diabetes-related-complications-age-75\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">died in 2018<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>After their divorce, Reiner, at a lunch with Nora Ephron, suggested a comedy about dating. In writing what became &#8220;When Harry Met Sally \u2026&#8221;, Ephron and Reiner charted a relationship between a man and a woman \u2014 memorably played in the film by Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan \u2014 over the course of 12 years.<\/p>\n<p>Along the way, the movie&#8217;s ending changed, as did some of the film&#8217;s indelible moments. The famous line, &#8220;I&#8217;ll have what she&#8217;s having,&#8221; said after witnessing Ryan&#8217;s fake orgasm at Katz&#8217;s Delicatessen, was a suggestion by Crystal \u2014 delivered by none other than Reiner&#8217;s mother, Estelle.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m pounding the table, &#8216;Yes! Yes! Yes!&#8217; And I&#8217;m realizing I&#8217;m having an orgasm in front of my mother, you know? There&#8217;s my mother over there,&#8221; Reiner told &#8220;60 Minutes.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The movie&#8217;s happy ending also had some real-life basis. Reiner said he changed it after meeting Singer, a photographer, on the set of the film. They married In 1989, and had three children together: Nick, Jake and Romy.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/12\/15\/f4550bcc-5ef2-4919-bc79-8d7bc05480c0\/thumbnail\/620x364g2\/057c26956e2557b8203230bb44500650\/gettyimages-2205840229.jpg#\" alt=\"Rob Reiner and wife Michele Singer Reiner \" height=\"364\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/12\/15\/f4550bcc-5ef2-4919-bc79-8d7bc05480c0\/thumbnail\/620x364g2\/057c26956e2557b8203230bb44500650\/gettyimages-2205840229.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/12\/15\/f4550bcc-5ef2-4919-bc79-8d7bc05480c0\/thumbnail\/1240x728g2\/54e807b86954a4a54319c58c23814f6e\/gettyimages-2205840229.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">Rob Reiner and wife Michele Singer Reiner at the Human Rights Campaign&#8217;s 2025 Los Angeles dinner on March 22, 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Christopher Polk\/Variety via Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Reiner&#8217;s subsequent films included another King adaptation, &#8220;Misery&#8221; (1990) and a pair of Aaron Sorkin-penned dramas: the military courtroom tale &#8220;A Few Good Men&#8221; (1992) and 1995&#8217;s &#8220;The American President.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>By the late &#8217;90s, Reiner&#8217;s films (1996&#8217;s &#8220;Ghosts of Mississippi,&#8221; 2007&#8217;s &#8220;The Bucket List&#8221;) no longer had the same success rate.
