The voice of CNN and so much more!

He was great in Field of Dreams and his cameo on Big Bang was memorable.
Just a few of his many accomplishments.

It's the voice over work that really impacted me. Being both Darth Vader and Mufasa from The Lion King are my most treasured memories of his great career.

Omg what? I’m just hearing about this now and I’m really sad to hear this. I’m a big Star Wars geek, and the Lion King is one of my all time favourite Disney animated movies. He was such a great actor with an amazing unique voice. He voiced many characters in many movies over his career. This is truly sad.

I remember him from one of his very first rolls, he played the navigator on the B-52 in the movie Dr Strangelove, I had a feeling he was going to make a name for himself. A sad loss!

Mark Hamill posted this on twitter & I’ll admit seeing this I got pretty emotional.

The man was a legend. He'll be missed.

“Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father.”
“He told me enough. He told me you killed him.”
“No, I am your father.”

Said with gloved fist raised up ...

Epic, just epic ...

Just re-watched Field of Dream ... Rest well James. It was nice to see you walk thru the corn and giggle.
Rest well good sir.

umm... Earl only did the voice over for Star Wars for Darth Vader, it was another actor that was in the suit... It was his voice that made Darth Vader....
