Had one of the most iconic voices and Darh Vader wouldn't have been the same without him. 93 years old.

I went to one of his Shakespeare readings many years ago and got to meet him briefly. A giant talent lost. RIP.
My favorite Jones role was his portrayal of Terence Mann in Field of Dreams:

Rest in peace, Sir!
Rest in peace, Sir!
Reading his Wikipedia page reminded me that he was in Dr. Strangelove. I'd forgotten about that.
A sterling actor, obviously an iconic voice who had a really great run. RIP.
How can I forget him from Conan the Barbarian. He was truly gifted. Great actor. RIP.
I had forgotten that as well; thanks for reminding me!
Mr. Jones' character was Lt. Lothar Zogg, and this was his first film role.

One of my favorite actors ever since I first saw him in Dr. Strangelove, 60 years ago. RIP!
Thanks for the HUGE body of superb and iconic work. Requiescat in pace.
What a magnificent actor. I remember seeing him for the first time in the eighties, in my grandmother's village cinema, Conan the Barbarian. Because of my age they wouldn't have let me see it, but you know, in a small town, anything is possible. Rest in peace.
His presence in film, whether solely his voice or his entire self, was unmistakable, unwavering, and always special. Capital T talent.
It you've never seen it, "Claudine" is my favorite early role of his.
Definitely worth a watch if you get a chance.
