The sources said there was no sign of foul play, but
the Los Angeles Police Department was investigating.
In a 2010 interview with The Times, he said he was excited about a movie project he was developing about "Soul Train."
"We've been in discussions with several people about getting a movie off the ground. It wouldn't be the 'Soul Train' dance show, it would be more of a biographical look at the project," he said. "It's going to be about some of the things that really happened on the show."
According to a Times article, Cornelius’ “Soul Train”
became the longest-running first-run nationally syndicated show in television
history, bringing African American music and style to the world for 35
years.
Cornelius stopped hosting the show in 1993, and “Soul
Train” ceased production in 2006....
In his honor lets go down the Soul Train Line
