football_fan 42 Posted June 24, 2005 74-year-old actor James Earl Jones, who played the voice of Darth Vader in the Star Wars movies, is suffering from pneumonia and other health related problems. This has forced the cancellation of his Broadway play "On Golden Pond". Could this be a sign that he may be about to croak one last time? Darth Vader star too ill for play Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mortician 2 Posted June 24, 2005 Perhaps having Hayden Characterless play your younger self is enough to drive you to death... If so JEJ is definitely knackered! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm, maybe worth a DL call up sooner than later. 4 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
