Chaplin and Streisand in rehearsals for Funny Girl (Photo courtesy of Graham Rye archive) Sydney Chaplin, the son of legendary comic genius Charles Chaplin, has died at age 82. Chaplin was an accomplished actor, but he never earned fame and fortune in his own right, perhaps because of the long shadow cast by his father's legend. Sydney Chaplin hit the peak of his career with his Tony Award as Best Actor for the 1957 Broadway hit The Bells Are Ringing. He also starred opposite Barbra Streisand in the stage version of Funny Girl. However, when both plays were brought to the screen, Chaplin was replaced by Dean Martin and Omar Sharif, respectively, because of their box-office appeal. Sydney appeared in two of his father's films: the bittersweet 1952 drama Limelight and Charles Chaplin's ill-fated late career directorial effort, the 1967 comedy A Countess From Hong Kong.

Charlie Chaplin's actor son Sydney has died at his home in California. He was 82.
A Tony Award-winning actor, who once starred on Broadway opposite Barbra Streisand in Funny Girl, Chaplin passed away on Tuesday.
The young Chaplin appeared in two of his father's films, Limelight and The Countess From Hong Kong.
He won a Tony for musical Bells Are Ringing in the mid-1950s.
He played Nicky Arnstein opposite Streisand in 1964's Funny Girl.
He quit the show before Streisand took the musical to the big screen - and Omar Sharif took on the role Chaplin made famous on Broadway.
He also missed out on the film version of Bells Are Ringing - Dean Martin landed that part.
Limelight was his first film role and is still considered Charlie Chaplin's last great movie. »
