November 29, 2020 - Actor David Prowse, known for playing Darth Vader in the original Star Wars trilogy, passed away this Sunday at the age of 85.
The Bristol-born actor's death was announced on Twitter this morning by his agency.
Prowse, who put his body, but not his voice, on Darth Vader, was also widely known in the UK for a road awareness campaign that taught children to cross the road and for which he was awarded the Order of the British Empire.
After his role in Star Wars, he stayed away from cinema but previously had other roles in films such as A Clockwork Orange and played Frankenstein on three occasions.
"May the Force always be with him," said Officer Thomas Bowington.
Prowse died after a brief illness - a loss to "millions of fans around the world".
