Tony Todd, the actor who played the eponymous killer in the “Candyman” film franchise, has died at his California home on Wednesday night. He was 69.

“I regretfully can confirm that my dear friend and client of over 30 years, Tony Todd has passed away,” his manager Jeffrey Goldberg told The Post. “What an amazing man and I will miss him every single day.”

Todd died of natural causes, according to TMZ.

Todd played the famed villain in the original 1992 “Candyman” movie and its 2021 sequel — as well as the two other films in the horror series “Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh” and “Candyman: Day of the Dead.”
