Gene Kelly

Eugene Curran "Gene" Kelly (23 August 1912 - 2 February 1996) was a famous American actor, dancer, and choreographer. He starred in many movies throughout his career, including Singin' in the Rain (1952), which he also choreographed, and Xanadu (1980).
Although he never voiced any animated characters, he did interact with cartoons created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. He danced with Jerry Mouse in Anchors Aweigh, was victimized by an animated snake in Invitation to the Dance, and on television, played Jeremy Keen in Hanna-Barbera's live action/animated adaptation of Jack and the Beanstalk. He died at the age of 83, having suffered two strokes from which he never fully recovered. There was neither a funeral nor a memorial service, as he was cremated.
