Man, this deal is getting worse all the time.

Are you thinking of Billy Dee Williams?

Man. This is a big one. Guy played some awesome characters. Apollo Creed, Dillon, Chubbs.

Interestingly, they all die.

He was supposed to die in Season 1 of The Mandalorian as well. Saved by Beskar (and a re-write).

One of those careers where he's not a big time movie star, but always a standout in everything he did and managed to do enough to stay culturally relevant his whole career. If you ever heard an interview with him he had amazing energy and enthusiasm for whatever he was working on. Really dissapointed he won't be popping up in Mando any more.

This kind of stuff is pretty sobering for me since I have so much family and family friends in the mid-late 70s range.

Big fan of Mr. Weathers. That said I’ve never seen Action Jackson. I need to find a way. Dude was in fantastic shape.

Teenage me had a big crush on him. Rest in peace.
