Will think of him as Chubbs rather than Apollo

Gutted! Recently watched The Mandalorian including the Making Of episodes where they interview him. He seemed so full of life

RIP, I'll forever love him for his part as Dillon in Predator, among other roles.

 

[Maple Leaf]

RIP.

He said in an interview once that he wanted to become an actor after watching Sidney Poitier's films as a child. That also explains why he played characters with intelligent, likeable, avuncular demeanours. I hope he was proud to have been a positive African-American male role-model, just as Poitier was for his generation.

He was great in Happy Gilmore

For some reason it never registered with me that it was Carl Weathers in that film. Yeah great though, so silly but great.

RIP Carl. A legend of cinema.
