Police said the deaths of Hackman and his wife are "suspicious enough" to warrant an inquiry.
Gene Hackman, the acclaimed two-time Oscar-winning actor known for his prolific career in Hollywood, was found dead at his New Mexico home at age 95 alongside his wife, Betsy Arakawa, and one of their dogs.
Hackman, who retired two decades ago, was discovered in the mudroom, while Arakawa was found in a bathroom near a space heater with prescription pills nearby. Investigations are ongoing, and no signs of foul play or gas leaks have been reported so far.
