King Jaffe Joffer hits the portal

Damn. Andrew filliponi just said that his role as Mufasa was his greatest and biggest role…more so than Darth Vader.

I mean, how is any role bigger than the most recognizable villain in cinema, Hollywood, and pop culture history? Lol at Poni.

Him and Morgan freeman. Two best voice actors I can think of.
Grew up the only black kid in little Manistee Michigan, an old lumber port in northwestern Michigan. Had such a severe stutter as a kid his high school English teacher spent years outside of school working with him to help him overcome it. That little rural school teacher saw the talent in him and got him started in acting and getting some professional voice coaching. The rest worked out pretty well for him.

RIP to a great one and a real American success story.

Mike Rowe on TBN’s “The Story Behind the story” had a great episode on that.
 
He was a great actor, with a distinctive and awesome voice.

Playing Jack Jefferson in "The Great White Hope" was one of his best.

Shout out to his work on the Simpsons, particularly his narratiion of "The Raven."

RIP to a legend.
 
I'd love to see that--is it available on demand?
I tried to search for it, but wasn't able to find it. If you get TBN, I'm sure it would be on reruns at some point.

Most of those episodes are really good, so if you can record them, I'd recommend it.

I also looked on youtube, and there are lots, but that one didn't show.
