Tony Todd -- best known for his title role in the "Candyman" horror film franchise -- has died, TMZ has confirmed.

His rep, Jeffrey Goldberg, tells us ... Tony died of natural causes at his Marina del Rey home in Los Angeles on Wednesday night. Goldberg said he did not have a specific cause of death.

Todd was a longtime actor with an impressive list of credits, landing parts in movies such as "The Crow," "The Rock," "Final Destination," "Platoon and "Night of the Living Dead."

Perhaps his biggest roles were in the horror franchise "Candyman," where he played the title character. In addition to the original 1992 flick, he also acted in three follow up films: "Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh" (1995), "Candyman 3: Day of the Dead" (1999) and "Candyman" (2021).

His TV credits included "Boston Public," "Law & Order," "Smallville," "Charmed," "21 Jump Street" and "Star Trek: The Next Generation."

The last time we saw him was back in 2019, when we asked about Jordan Peele taking a stab at the Candyman franchise.
