2026 really needs to stop. Last week we lost Chuck Norris and now today we say goodbye to James Tolkan who has passed away at the age of 94. He starred in Top Gun, Masters of the Universe, Back to the Future, WarGames, Dick Tracy, Robo Warriors and many many more.
I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Tolkan last year at the Toronto FanExpo and despite playing characters who were tough hotheads, he was the sweetest person in real life. We chatted for a few minutes and he almost wouldn’t let go of my hand as he shook it at the end.
R.I.P. Mr. Tolkan, you will be missed.
