Mrs. Doubtfire Cast: Where Are They Now?

Robin Williams as Daniel Hillard/Mrs. Doubtfire

In the dual role of Daniel Hillard and Mrs. Doubtfire, Williams felt complete freedom when exploring the character.

Williams continued to grace the silver screen with iconic roles in Jumanji (1995), The Birdcage (1996), Good Will Hunting (1997) — for which he won an Oscar for Best Actor — Patch Adams (1998), One Hour Photo (2002), Insomnia (2002) and the Night at the Museum franchise.

On Aug. 11, 2014, Williams died by an apparent suicide at the age of 63. He is survived by his third wife, Susan Schneider Williams, whom he wed in 2011. The late actor also had three children — Zak, Zelda and Cody — from his previous marriages to Valerie Velardi and Marsha Garces.
