    I'm sure you will have seen the news everywhere already, but for those that haven't, legendary actor James Earl Jones died this Monday 😢

     
    JEJ was a legendary voice actor and film star. He will very much be missed...
     
    Really sad news, had such an iconic career. Shout out to one of his more underrated performances as Thulsa Doom in the Conan the Barbarian Movie. I sometimes feel like that doesn't get enough mention as his other better known roles.
    He'll definitely be missed for sure. Rest in peace.
     
    I loved his work-- the whole world clearly did as evidenced by the tributes by other actors and fans pouring across the globe.

    I'm sinking my teeth into his audiobook recordings lately, so that I can always keep his lush, commanding bass produndo voice close. He was one of the greatest actors of all time, and glad this legend made it to the ripe old age of 93 and died peacefully at home surrounded by loved ones. I know he's a Shakespearean and Broadway veteran, but I am partial to seeing him in the fun roles, the sci-fi and fantasy epics like Star Wars and Conan. I hope there will be film fest at a movie theater near me soon, celebrating his artistry.
