An autopsy is scheduled on acclaimed stage and film actor Philip Seymour Hoffman, who was found dead in his Manhattan apartment on Sunday of an apparent drug overdose, an official said.

The 46-year-old Oscar winner was discovered in the bathroom of his Greenwich Village apartment with a syringe in his arm. Two small bags of a substance thought to be heroin were found.

New York City police were investigating Hoffman's death and were trying to determine the source of the substance that apparently killed an actor many considered one of the finest of his generation.

A day after the shock of his sudden death, tributes to Hoffman continued pouring in.

A bouquet of white roses were placed near the entrance to Hoffman's home.

While numerous stars in the music and film world took to social media to share their thoughts.

Hoffman was 46 and is survived by three children.
