Yaphet Kotto, 81
Though virtually unknown to modern film and TV audiences, Yaphet Kotto was one of the top supporting actors of the 70s and 80s. He first gained prominence after playing Mr. Big in the James Bond flick Live and Let Die. Some of his other memorable performances include the role of Parker in the genre-defining sci-fi classic Alien and as FBI agent Mosley in the action-comedy Midnight Run. Kottos hulking physique and serious demeanor made him a perfect fit for many roles that required both gravitas and an imposing physical presence. The actor spent his final days in Manila, in the Philippines where he reportedly died on March 15th.
