Celebrities are taking to social media to mourn the passing of screen legend and 70s sex symbol Burt Reynolds, who died at the age of 82 from a heart attack in Florida on Thursday morning.

Arnold Schwarzenegger was one of the first to comment, calling Reynolds one of his “heroes.” “He was a trailblazer,” he tweeted.

Kate Hudson shared a photo of her and her mother, Goldie Hawn, with Reynolds. She captioned the old black and white shot with a broken heart emoji. Meanwhile, Mark Wahlberg posted a shot of Reynolds and himself from the sets of 'Boogie Nights', captioning the post with "Rest in peace to a legend and a friend." Fans will remember that Reynold was nominated for an Oscar in 1997 for the best supporting actor for his role as porn director Jack Horner in 'Boogie Knights'.
