A wave of grief has spread across Hollywood and the United States following the deaths of filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner. The couple were found inside their Brentwood, Los Angeles, home on Sunday, December 14, and police are investigating the case as an apparent homicide. Authorities have emphasized that the investigation is ongoing and that many details have not yet been confirmed.
According to law enforcement, officers responded to a call at the residence and later determined that the circumstances required a full homicide investigation. Sources familiar with the case told local media that there were no signs of forced entry at the home. Officials also noted that several family members are being interviewed as part of standard procedure, but stressed that no one has been named a suspect and no arrests have been made.
At a late-Sunday news conference, LAPD Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton said detectives were still gathering evidence and working to obtain search warrants before conducting a thorough examination of the property. He confirmed that police intend to speak with all relevant family members in order to establish a clear timeline of events.
Rob Reiner, 78, was a major figure in American entertainment, rising to fame on All in the Family before directing celebrated films such as When Harry Met Sally, The Princess Bride, and Stand By Me. Michele Singer Reiner, 68, was a photographer and producer who worked on several film projects alongside her husband. Tributes from colleagues, political leaders, and fans continue to pour in as the community mourns their loss and awaits further updates from investigators.
