Marty Funkhouser, played by Bob Einstein, was a popular Curb Your Enthusiasm character. Sadly, Einstein’s charm and humor won’t be present in the upcoming season, which premieres on January 19. He passed away in January 2019.

According to the New York Daily News, Season 10 was meant to have Bob Einstein. Einstein had to postpone a scheduled appearance after they began filming, according to Jeff Garlin, an executive producer of the show.

What was Bob Einstein cause of death?

At the age of 76, Einstein passed away from complications related to a recent cancer diagnosis. Other information, such as the type of cancer, was kept private. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society was requested as a donation by his family, according to the Los Angeles Times.

The plot for Season 10 was planned to include Marty Funkhouser, a character played by Einstein. The hardest part, however, wasn’t that. Due to their close friendship, Larry David found Einstein’s passing to be very difficult. You’re talking about someone who was a close friend of mine and Larry’s, so it affected us not only creatively but also much more deeply personally, according to Garlin.
