He passed away at the age of 77. The first role I remember seeing him play is a classic.

I watched Jackie the day before he died and was thinking how awesome he was in The Proposition

I was too young to see Alien at the theater in '79 but I definitely remember this scene at the theater:

I always liked him in Contact as well. He was just a great character actor.

Definitely one of my favorite actors, his voice was up there Tony Jay in terms of uniqueness.

The amount of nerds who are crying over him on social medias solely because of his role in Harry Potter and his episode as the Doctor kinda pisses me off.

Da fuq was he in Harry Potter?

Edit... wow he was the Wand Merchant guy.

That's the sign of a great actor, you notice the character and not the actor.

I heard on NPR (I believe it was NPR) that the scene with Alien and the chestburster was completely kept secret to the cast. I think the woman (not Sigorney [sp]) mentioned she had fainted when the blood splattered everyone.

Don't worry we have a few more months until both Ian Holm and Ian McKellan die.
