THE brother of Hollywood star Sean Penn, actor Chris Penn, died today in a Santa Monica residence.

Santa Monica police and the Los Angeles County Coroner were not immediately available for comment.

A local ABC television affiliate reported there were no signs of foul play.

Penn, 43, starred in dozens of films, from baby-faced criminal Nice Guy Eddie Cabot in director Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs to starring alongside his brother in the 1986 film At Close Range.

He also played Willard Hewitt in Footloose in 1984.

Recently, Penn voiced Officer Eddie Pulaski in the video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. - with Reuters

Bummer.

That scene at the end of Reservoir Dogs, when he's explaining why Blonde wasn't a rat and he says "that now this man is free, and we're making good on our commitment to him, he's just gonna decide, right out of the f**kin blue, to rip us off?", and a bit of spit flies up into the air just as he says "blue"... omg... I'll love Chris Penn forever for that.
