Actor and Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife were found stabbed to death inside their Los Angeles home on Sunday afternoon, according to reports.

LAPD officers found the bodies of two individuals — a 78-year-old man and a 68-year-old woman — inside the home on South Chadbourne Ave. late Sunday afternoon. Police confirmed the home was owned by Reiner, the iconic director of such films as The Princess Bride, This Is Spinal Tap, and Stand By Me.

A statement from the Reiner family later confirmed that the director and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, were the victims.

“It is with profound sorrow that we announce the tragic passing of Michele and Rob Reiner,” the statement read. “We are heartbroken by this sudden loss, and we ask for privacy during this unbelievably difficult time.”

A neighbor told ABC’s Los Angeles affiliate KABC that Curb Your Enthusiasm star Larry David and Billy Crystal, who Reiner directed in When Harry Met Sally, were seen at the house.

“Billy looked like he was about to cry,” the neighbor said.

Reiner played Mike “Meathead” Stivic on All in the Family, before making a huge impact as a director of numerous hit films.
