Late actor Alan Rickman has been remembered in Google Doodle on the 36th anniversary of his role as Vicomte de Valmont in the Broadway production of Les Liaisons Dangereuses. The role is considered instrumental in launching his career. Rickman's theatre performance was one of his first leading roles, and it helped him gain recognition as an actor. Rickman went on to star in major films, including Die Hard (1988), Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991) and the Harry Potter franchise as Professor Snape. The Google Doodle, created by artist Helene Leroux, shows Rickman raising his eyebrows and surrounded by leaves. Leroux said that it was a privilege to honour Rickman's life and career in the image. Rickman passed away in 2016 at the age of 69 due to pancreatic cancer.
