Whether you met him on the football field or on screen in movies like Rocky or The Mandalorian, Carl Weathers was a beloved figure in American culture. The Happy Gilmore star died Feb. 1 at the age of 76, and it turns out he left behind quite a sum of money for his family. Even more shocking was just how he kept it. 

According to court documents obtained by In Touch, Weathers' family revealed that he had $870,053.83 at the time of his death. He kept a total of $664,585 in cash in safe deposit boxes at the bank, in addition to two City National accounts with $40,278 and $107,190, respectively.  

That's not all Weathers left behind in his name. He owned a 2018 GMC pickup truck with 18,976 miles on it estimated by the family to be worth approximately $58,000. 

Weathers' life took him from the football field to the silver screen in the early 1970s. He briefly played with the Oakland Raiders and had a quick stint in Canada with the BC Lions before transitioning into an acting career. His breakout role came in 1976 when he starred opposite Sylvester Stallone as the iconic antagonist Apollo Creed in Rocky. He went on to reprise his role in the sequels Rocky II, Rocky III, and Rocky IV. At the turn of this decade, he was introduced to both new and old audiences with a major role in the Star Wars spin-off series The Mandalorian

"Carl was an exceptional human being who lived an extraordinary life," his family said in a statement after his death, per Deadline. "Through his contributions to film, television, the arts and sports, he has left an indelible mark and is recognized worldwide and across generations."
