Google Doodle pays tribute to Alan Rickman’s character

Google Doodle on Sunday paid homage to British acting legend Alan Rickman’s performance as anti-hero Le Vicomte de Valmont in the play “Les Liaisons Dangereuses”.
Besides his most famous character of Professor Snape in the screen adaptation of JK Rowling’s books, Rickman played key roles such as Hans Gruber in “Die Hard” and won a Bafta Award for playing the Sheriff of Nottingham in 1991’s “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves”.
Rickman died on January 14, 2016 at the age of 69 following a battle with cancer. Some of his last performances were in the Coen Brothers’ film “Gambit”, as Ronald Reagan in “Lee Daniels”, “The Butler”, and a humorous King Louis XIV in “A Little Chaos”
