Just a tidbit of sad news to report that actor Kan Bonfils has passed away during rehearsals of a production of Dante's Inferno. Bonfils was known to us Bond fans as Satoshi Isagura in 1997's Tomorrow Never Dies and apparently he also was a henchman in 2012's Skyfall.. (not exactly sure which scene he was in.. I need to rewatch to confirm). Bonfils also appeared as one of Ra's Al Ghul's men in 2005's Batman Begins and played a Jedi master in 1999's, Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.

 

Just awful to hear whenever a tragedy like this occurs... :sad:

Yes, I saw that - sad news.

 

I think he was one of the henchmen on the boat taking Severine and Bond to the island.
