查克·诺里斯（Chuck Norris）的家人周五表示，这位动作影星和武术家已去世，享年86岁。
诺里斯的家人在Instagram上发文称，他的离世很突然，但“他在家人的陪伴下安详离去”。他最近曾住院治疗。家属表示希望对其死亡细节保密，未透露具体死因及更多情况。
“对世界而言，他是武术家、演员，是力量的象征。对我们而言，他是 devoted 的丈夫、慈爱的父亲和祖父、了不起的兄弟，是我们家庭的核心，”家属写道，“他一生秉持信仰、目标明确，对所爱之人的承诺坚定不移。通过他的工作、自律和善良，他激励了全球数百万人，给无数生命留下了深远影响。”
诺里斯原名卡洛斯·雷·诺里斯（Carlos Ray Norris），1940年3月10日出生于俄克拉荷马州，12岁时随家人迁居加利福尼亚。朝鲜战争期间，他在美国空军服役，期间开始练习武术。
退伍后，他继续习武并最终开设了连锁空手道学校。据美联社报道，他曾六次蝉联世界职业中量级空手道冠军，并创立了以韩国为基础的美式硬派空手道（有时被称为“ Chun Kuk Do ”），以及美国格斗艺术联合会，该组织在全球授予了超过3300条查克·诺里斯体系黑带。
1968年，他首次登上大银幕，1972年在《猛龙过江》中与同为武术家的李小龙合作。20世纪70年代至80年代，他主演了多部动作和武术电影。
“我想在银幕上塑造一个特定的英雄形象。我看过很多反英雄电影，主角亦正亦邪，让人无所适从，”诺里斯1982年接受美联社采访时表示。
20世纪90年代，诺里斯在哥伦比亚广播公司（CBS）剧集《德州巡警》中担纲主角，该剧播出长达八年。2010年，时任得克萨斯州州长里克·佩里（Rick Perry）授予他荣誉德州游骑兵称号，得克萨斯州参议院随后又授予他荣誉德州居民称号。
诺里斯一直活跃至2010年代，最后一部重要电影是2012年的《敢死队2》。他还成为网络迷因（meme），一系列夸张笑话将他描述为“无所不能的硬汉”。此外，他还出演电视购物广告，并在2010年代逐渐公开表达政治立场，包括2016年宣布支持特朗普总统。
1958年，18岁的诺里斯与17岁的同学黛安·凯·霍莱切克（Dianne Kay Holechek）结婚，两人育有一子一女迈克（Mike）和埃里克（Eric），1989年离婚。在这段婚姻期间，他还有一个非婚生女蒂娜（Dina）。
1998年，诺里斯与模特吉娜·奥凯利（Gena O’Kelley）结婚，两人育有双胞胎 Dakota 和 Danilee。
诺里斯的家人表示：“我们深深感激他所过的一生，以及我们有幸与他共度的难忘时光。”
“他从全球粉丝那里获得的爱与支持对他意义重大，我们全家对此深表谢意，”家属在Instagram上写道，“对他而言，你们不只是粉丝，更是他的朋友……感谢你们与我们一同爱他。”

Action star and martial artist Chuck Norris has died, his family said Friday. He was 86.
Norris’ family said on Instagram that his death was sudden but that “he was surrounded by his family and was at peace.” He had been hospitalized recently. The family said they wanted to keep the circumstances of his death private and did not share any updates about how he died.
“To the world, he was a martial artist, actor, and a symbol of strength. To us, he was a devoted husband, a loving father and grandfather, an incredible brother, and the heart of our family,” the family wrote. “He lived his life with faith, purpose, and an unwavering commitment to the people he loved. Through his work, discipline, and kindness, he inspired millions around the world and left a lasting impact on so many lives.”

Norris was born Carlos Ray Norris in Oklahoma on March 10, 1940, and his family moved to California when he was 12. He served in the United States Air Force during the Korean War, where he began practicing martial arts.
After returning home, he continued training and eventually opened a chain of karate schools. He was a six-time undefeated World Professional Middleweight Karate champion, according to the Associated Press, and founded his own Korean-based American hard style of karate, known sometimes as Chun Kuk Do, and the United Fighting Arts Federation, which has awarded more than 3,300 Chuck Norris System black belts worldwide.
He made his film debut in 1968 and acted alongside fellow martial artist Bruce Lee in 1972’s “The Way of the Dragon.” He starred in several action and martial arts films during the 1970s and 1980s.
“I wanted to project a certain image on the screen of a hero. I had seen a lot of anti-hero movies in which the lead was neither good nor bad. There was no one to root for,” Norris told the Associated Press in 1982.
In the 1990s, Norris played the title role in CBS’ “Walker, Texas Ranger.” The show ran for eight years. In 2010, he was named an honorary Texas Ranger by then-Gov. Rick Perry. The Texas Senate later named him an honorary Texan.
Norris continued acting until the 2010s. His last major film was 2012’s “The Expendables 2.” He became an online meme, with hyperbolic jokes describing him as impossibly tough. He also appeared in infomercials and became increasingly politically outspoken throughout the 2010s, including announcing support for President Trump in 2016.
Norris married classmate Dianne Kay Holechek in 1958, when he was 18 and she was 17. They had two children, Mike and Eric, together, and divorced in 1989. During that marriage, he had a daughter, Dina, out of wedlock.

In 1998, Norris married model Gena O’Kelley. They share two children, twins Dakota and Danilee.
Norris’ family said that they were “deeply grateful for the life he lived and for the unforgettable moments we were blessed to share with him.”
“The love and support he received from fans around the world meant so much to him, and our family is truly thankful for it,” the family said on Instagram. “To him, you were not just fans, you were his friends. … Thank you for loving him with us.”
