Hollywood rallied together in mourning Terrence McNally on Tuesday afternoon, following the news that the 81-year-old playwright had died at a hospital in Sarasota, Florida.

McNally died due to complications from COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus. The admired playwright battled lung cancer in the late 1990s and the disease cost him portions of both lungs.

He has lived with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ever since. With 25 Broadway productions, nearly 40 plays and 10 musicals to his name, McNally was recognized as a prolific writer whose work moved seamlessly from comedy to drama and from downtown avant-garde to the mainstream Great White Way.

Lin-Manuel Miranda chatted with Apple Music's Zane Lowe Tuesday (July 7) to talk about Hamilton, his Broadway musical-turned-Disney+ movie, and its affectionate connection to hip-hop.Telling the story of one of America's Founding Fathers Alexander Hamilton meant encapsulating how Hamilton wrote as a form of resistance and proved the pen was mightier than the sword during the fight for people's liberation during a historical large-scale revolution, similar to the work of rappers in Miranda's mind. "I mean, hip-hop's the language of revolution and it's our greatest American art form," he told Lowe during the FaceTime interview.
