RetroDaze - Thread | Actor Richard Kiel

As I posted on RJ, Richard Kiel died on September 10, 2014.

Richard was, as he said, very TALL, lol. It really was quite surprising how a man over 7 ft. tall found work in so many projects spanning so many decades.

Yes, his most famous appearance was with the James Bond franchise as "Jaws" but I will always associated him with his stunning appearance on "The Twilight Zone" as a Kanamit in the episode, "To Serve Man".

Richard was a true fan of science fiction and I will miss him.

Rest In Peace Richard Kiel
