Screen legend famous for roles in Hammer Horror films, Lord of the Rings and Star Wars has died. He died four days ago, June 7, at a hospital after suffering heart and respiratory problems, but the news only broke yesterday night.
Lee also played Dracula, the bad guy in the James Bond thriller “The Man with the Golden Gun,” and the deliciously evil wizard Saruman in the “Lord of the Ring” films. Lee appeared in more than 250 films. He was 93. May his soul rest in peace.
