Very sad to hear of his passing as he was part of my childhood.

One of the greats from the 80’s, and more recently the Mandalorian.

Re: RIP Carl Weathers
I had to look him up as Rocky references mean nothing to me.
Having done so, I do recall him from the Madalorian. RIP Carl.

Re: RIP Carl Weathers
He was in Predator, as Dillon, a CIA operative. "You're still under orders, Major. Do you wanna make that call, or should I?"
