Max Von Sydow has passed away on 8 March 2020 at the age of 90 at his home in Provence, France.

A film icon, versatile actor, Max Von Sydow was part of many sci-fi movies now cult classics. Flash Gordon, Conan the Barbarian, Strange Brew, Dune, The Minority Report, and The Exorcist to name just a few. Some may also remember him as the voice of Vigo the Carpathian, in Ghost Busters II.

I will always remember him as Ming the Merciless.

R.I.P.

    Submitted it myself some hours after this was posted and now playing catch-up ball after I looked to find my submission's fate.

    Ming was excellent. As was Judge Fargo in the Stallone Judge Dredd film (yah, low brow appreciation for it). And Dune. And Shutter Island.
