Details of Philip Seymour Hoffman's will released
The actor Philip Seymour Hoffman, who died suddenly this month of a suspected drug overdose, left the bulk of his estate to his long-term companion, Marianne O'Donnell, according to a will filed in a New York court on Wednesday.

Philip Seymour Hoffman's Will: H
- •
Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman has bequeathed all of his personal property to the mother of his three children.
His will was made public Wednesday. It names Marianne "Mimi" O'Donnell as the sole beneficiary and identifies her as his "friend and companion."
Extra, which obtained a copy of the will, reports the document stated Hoffman's request that his son, Cooper, be raised in Manhattan -- or, if not there, then Chicago or San Francisco. If that was not possible, he asked that Cooper visit those cities "at least twice per year" so he could "be exposed to the culture, arts and architecture that such cities offer."
The will was drafted in October 2004, when Cooper was a year old and before Hoffman and O'Donnell's daughters Tallulah and Willa were born.
The Oscar-winning actor died Feb. 2 at his New York City home in an apparent heroin overdose.

“The first tangible sign came when, out of nowhere, Phil said to me, ‘I’ve been thinking I want to try to have a drink again. What do you think?'” she wrote. “I thought it was a terrible idea, and I said so. Sobriety had been the center of Phil’s life for over 20 years, so this was definitely a red flag. He started having a drink or two without it seeming a big deal, but the moment drugs came into play, I confronted Phil, who admitted that he’d gotten ahold of some prescr
