As you know, Malcolm‑Jamal Warner straight‑up owned the ’80s as Theodore Huxtable on “The Cosby Show,” snagging an Emmy nod and locking in his spot in TV royalty.

He kept the hustle going with sitcom fav “Malcolm & Eddie,” voiced one of the coolest cartoons — yeah, “The Magic School Bus” — and even flexed his music chops with a Grammy win in 2015.

Most recently, he was hosting the podcast “Not All Hood,” and his latest episode dropped just 3 days ago.

Malcolm‑Jamal leaves behind a wife and daughter — he chose not to publicly share their names, always keeping his family life private.

He was 54.
