James Earl Jones, the actor known for his iconic voice in film and animation has died at the age of 93. In a career spanning 62 years, the late Jones has starred in more than 190 films and TV series. He is famous among film fans as the voice of Darth Vader in the Star Wars series and also Mufasa in The Lion King film series.
For video game fans, he played the role of General James Solomon in the video game Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun. He was last active in acting in 2022 when he once again lent his voice to the character of Darth Vader in the TV series Obi Wan Kenobi for Disney+. The deceased is one of the few artists in the world who won the EGOT award.
Because he was quite old and infirm, Jones sold his voice rights to an AI company two years ago, allowing his voice to be used even after his death. Goodbye James Earl Jones, thanks for the memories when we were growing up.
