Friends and family of Academy Award-winning actor Philip Seymour Hoffman gathered this morning at Manhattan’s Church of St. Ignatius Loyola to mourn the loss of the late actor.
Over 400 people gathered to mourn the loss of Hoffman at the same church that hosted the funerals of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Lena Horne and Aaliyah. Cate Blanchett, Laura Linney, Julianne Moore, Michelle Williams, Amy Adams, Mary-Kate Olsen, Justin Theroux, Ethan Hawke, Louis C.K., Spike Lee, Diana Sawyer and Joaquin Phoenix were among the celebrities in attendance for the private funeral.
A large public memorial service for the actor is currently being planned for later this month.
Philip Seymour Hoffman died at the age of 46 on Sunday after overdosing on what appears to be a “deadly strain” of heroin. Three people have been arrested on drug charges in connection with Hoffman’s death.
