This one was really tough to hear.

I have seen so many shows and movies with Carl Weathers. One was a TV show from the 80's about Vietnam called Tour of Duty. He only appeared in the second half of Season 3 but he was one of the best additions to the cast. Of course we know him from Rocky and Predator. And he did an amazing job playing Greef in The Mandalorian.

He will be greatly missed. He was always in great shape physically.
