Bryan Singer remembers Patrick Stewart in a tribute: "It’s been a while since I last posted, but Patrick Stewart's passing has brought back decades of memories, and I wanted to share a few candid photographs from our time together. "First, my heart goes out to his wonderful wife, Sunny. "I could never recount all the experiences Patrick and I shared, both professionally and personally, in a single post. He was far more than a cast member and a friend. He was a teacher. "Every time I watched Patrick approach a role, whether onstage or on set, I learned something. His command of language, his understanding of character, the precision with which he could deliver an emotion or change the pace of a scene. He possessed a grace and confidence that only a lifetime devoted to the craft could produce, and he made even the most difficult performances seem effortless. "But beyond his extraordinary talent, Patrick was also a wonderfully fun and adventurous man. "One memory still makes me laugh. Knowing what an enormous 'Star Trek' fan I was, Patrick invited me to dinner at his home. What he neglected to mention was that William Shatner would be joining us. I completely freaked out! Patrick knew exactly what he was doing. "There were so many moments like that over the years, and I wish I could share them all. "I feel fortunate to have known Patrick, to have learned from him, and to have called him my friend. I will cherish those memories for the rest of my life. "He will be deeply missed."
