Yes, he was the voice of Darth Vader.
As recognizable as that role is, he was more than just that.
He was a trained prolific Shakespearean actor; Othello, King Lear, Claudius, and more.
He was a one of our greatest film actors in our time; films like Dr. Strangelove, The Comedians, The Great White Hope, The Sandlot, Coming to America, and more.
He was a Broadway star; The Iceman Cometh, Of Mice and Men, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, You Can't Take it With You, and more.
Emmy, Tony, and Grammy award winner. Inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame, received the Common Wealth Award for Outstanding Achievement in Dramatic Arts, and many more awards.
His gorgeous baritone vibrato hit that perfect sweet spot in our ears as he put his stamp on voice work in animated films like The Lion King, Fantasia 2000, American Legends, and more. He lended his soothing vocals to multiple commercials and franchises, too.
Rest in power, king. You'll be sorely missed Mr. James Earl Jones 💙
