A VERY HAPPY 91st BIRTHDAY TODAY JAMES EARL JONES! Widely regarded as the one of greatest stage and screen actors both in his native USA and internationally, James Earl Jones was born on January 17, 1931 in Arkabutla, Mississippi. At an early age, he started to take dramatic lessons to calm himself down. It appeared to work as he has since starred in many films over a 40-year period, beginning with the #StanleyKubrick classic 'Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb' (1964). For several movie fans, he is probably best known for his role as 'the voice of' #DarthVader, where alongside #PeterCushing as #GrandMoffTarkin in the original Star Wars trilogy, they formed a formidable duo! In his brilliant course of memorable performances, among others, Earl Jones has also appeared on the animated series #TheSimpsons (1989) three times and played Mufasa both in #TheLionKing (1994) and The Lion King (2019), while he returned too as the voice of Darth Vader in #StarWars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) and #RogueOne (2016)
