NEED TO KNOW

  • Malcolm-Jamal Warner has died, PEOPLE confirms

  • He was best known for playing Bill Cosby’s son on The Cosby Show.

Malcolm-Jamal Warner has died, a source confirms to PEOPLE. He was 54.

A rep for Warner did not immediately to a request for comment.

Warner’s career began with his role as Theo Huxtable on The Cosby Show.

The actor played the only son of Bill Cosby‘s character, Heathcliff Huxtable, in the sitcom from 1984 to 1992.

In 2023, Warner told PEOPLE of the show, “I know I can speak for all the cast when I say The Cosby Show is something that we are all still very proud of.”

“We share a unique experience that keeps us lovingly bonded no matter how much time goes between seeing or hearing from each other.”

Warner did, of course, acknowledge how the show’s legacy had changed given the allegations made against Cosby, 88, who was convicted of sexual assault in 2018 but later had the charge overturned in 2021, only for five more women to accuse him of sexual assault.

“Regardless of how some people may feel about the show now, I’m still proud of the legacy and having been a part of such an iconic show that had such a profound impact on — first and foremost, Black culture — but also American culture,” Warner said.

Following The Cosby Show, Warner went on to star in several other successful TV shows and movies.

He and Eddie Griffin led the sitcom Malcolm & Eddie from 1996 to 2000, and Warner was also well known for his role as Alex Reed on Reed Between the Lines, which he starred in alongside Tracee Ellis Ross from 2011 to 2015.
