Darth Vader died! Rest in Peace!

He created one of the most iconic arch-villains in movie history.

Director George Lucas saw Prowse in a small part in A Clockwork Orange and asked the almost two-metre tall actor to audition for the villainous Vader or the Wookie Chewbacca in Star Wars.

Prowse later told the BBC he chose Darth Vader because “you always remember the bad guys.”

Physically, Prowse was perfect for the part. His lilting English West Country accent was considered less ideal, and his lines were dubbed by James Earl Jones.

I can recall any article mentioning if Prowse was ever truly upset with it not being his voice.  Well, he did return for two other films, so I can see that as being an issue.

May your force ghost forever be an inspiration to all.

I have never heard of this Green Cross Code Man.

Might have to google it.
