The most exciting character deaths in movies are the ones that nobody saw coming, and there are plenty of ways that stories manage this.
Character deaths can always be among the most surprising parts of movies, but they’re even more impactful and emotional when they come completely out of the blue. The most memorable deaths are the ones that nobody saw coming, whether that’s because of a character’s importance to the story, their status as a ‘fan-favorite,’ or simply the popularity of the actor portraying them.
10 Macaulay Culkin In My Girl My Girl is the definition of a romantic tear-jerker, keeping the audience at arm's length for the entire runtime before killing off the young protagonist and forcing the rest of the characters to grapple with the trauma. It’s a shocking moment, not only because of how young Culkin was at the time, but because the story left no clues that led toward his death.
7 Josh Brolin In No Country For Old Men No Country For Old Men is filled with bold decisions that make the story so memorable, but killing Josh Brolin’s protagonist moments before the big finale was undeniably the biggest risk. The whole story builds towards an epic showdown between Moss and Chigurh, but the former is killed off-screen before this can even take place.
5 Samuel L. Jackson And Dwayne Johnson In The Other Guys The Other Guys opens with an epic car chase in which Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne Johnson’s characters bring down a group of criminals and become heroes within their precinct - all for the movie to kill them both off just a few scenes later. It’s at this point that Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell come to the foreground and take the reins.
