Going to have to replace him in the Marvel movies. He’s been in a lot of them.

A lot of classic movies, too many to count, probably most famous for his early 80’s stuff. I remember Altered States, but the one I remember most was Body Heat.

Some television trivia, courtesy of IMDB.com:

1977 Kojak's season four 2-part episode, Kojak's Days, starred a diner waitress, who was played by actress Liz Sheridan. It was her first television role. Sheridan would later play Seinfeld's mother, Helen.

The two-parter also featured a snitch, actor Robert Picardo, who tried to manipulate Kojak. It was his first television role. Picardo would go on to play The Doctor on Star Trek: Voyager.

There was a THIRD actor who started his professional career on Kojak in that same particular episode. William Hurt played a parking garage attendant, who had a car stolen that was involved in a murder. I grabbed this screenshot from the episode hosted on Dailymotion:

Needless to say, Hurt ended up with the best acting resume--even better than Kojak's Telly Savalas.

Who loves ya baby?

Rest in peace, Mr. Hurt.
