Ronny Louis Edmond Coutteure (2 July 1951 – 21 June 2000) was a Belgian actor, director, author, TV presenter and restaurateur and worked in cinema, radio, television, opera and theatre. He was a celebrity in his home country of Belgium and in France but is most famous internationally for his supporting role of Remy Baudouin, comrade-in-arms of Indiana Jones in The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles.
Career
In theater, Ronny Coutteure staged and performed several works. He was the proprietor of the "pub-theatre" La ferme des hirondelles (Swallow Farm) in Fretin in northern France and he wrote and directed an opera, Les Contes d'un buveur de bière (Tales of a beer drinker) as well as teaching "biérologie" ("beer-ology"). Coutteure was a strong supporter of the culture and heritage of northern France and became a symbol of the culture of the frontier region with Belgium.
Death
He committed suicide by hanging on 21 June 2000 at La ferme des hirondelles at the age of 48 shortly after France 3 announced the cancellation of his show Ronny coup de cœur.{{cite news |url=http://www.leparisien.fr/loisirs-et-spectacles/ronny-coutteure-est-mort-22-06-2000-2001456361.php |title=Ronny Coutteure est mort |date=22 June 2000 |access-date=7 January 2019 |newspaper=Le Parisien |language=fr}}
