I always liked this guy. I first noticed him in Red Dawn when I was a kid. RIP.

Of course I remember him for his villain in Agents of shield, but he was such a good bad guy in everything he played.

I still remember Red Dawn though where he was laying out this attack on the Russians where he was calling for grazing fire and using a defolait and the look of anguish when none of the kids knew what he was talking about.

Rest in Peace

I really liked him in Deadwood. His role in Tombstone stood out at as well.

Before he was typecast as the baddie, he was the leading man in Southern Comfort, an 80s action flick I enjoyed back in the day.

Such an iconic voice. I loved him even in Justice League as the voice of Gorilla Grodd.

Who is going to play Tolliver in the Deadwood movie now?
