news.sky.comHere’s the latest I can provide based on recent reporting up to 2025–2026.

Burt Reynolds has not had new on-screen projects or official new updates since his death in 2018. The most current, widely reported information remains his passing at age 82 in September 2018, and subsequent tributes or memorials reported in 2018–2020. If you’re looking for posthumous recognitions, there were discussions and articles about tributes and re-burial details in subsequent years.[5][6][7]

For the most up-to-date, live coverage, major outlets like TMZ, CBS stations, and ABC News periodically archive retrospective pieces or anniversary notes rather than breaking news, given Reynolds’s passing was several years ago.[1][9][10]
If you’d like, I can pull a fresh set of sources focusing on Burt Reynolds retrospectives, anniversaries, or a timeline of his career highlights. I can also compile a one-page bio with key films and awards. Would you prefer a quick timeline or a focused profile?
