Eric Dane, the charismatic actor who became a primetime icon as Dr. Mark “McSteamy” Sloan on Grey's Anatomy and later delivered a haunting turn as Cal Jacobs on HBO’s Euphoria, has died at 53 following a battle with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

His family confirmed that Dane passed away on February 19, surrounded by loved ones, after publicly revealing his ALS diagnosis in 2025.
