Apple today has added a ‘Remembering Robin Williams’ feature section in the iTunes Store following news of the actor’s passing yesterday afternoon.
The section features a collection of movies, TV shows, and other performances with the incredibly talented actor including Mrs. Doubtfire, Flubber, Hook, and Dead Poet Society, which inspired Apple’s recent ‘Your Verse’ campaign featuring ordinary people using the iPad in interesting ways. Williams’ famous line from his role in Dead Poet Society can be heard in the initial ‘Your Verse’ ad from earlier this year.
Apple CEO Tim Cook shared his thoughts in a tweet last night following the news of Williams’ passing.
In addition to featuring several performances by Robin Williams, the iTunes Store dedication includes a touching note on the actor’s work as well:
Heartbroken by the news of Robin Williams’ passing. He was an incomparable talent and a great human being. Rest in peace.
