Terribly sad news arrives as we learn that actor Angus MacInnes has passed. He was 77, and leaves behind a hit-stacked career including roles in Rollerball, Force 10 From Navarone, Superman II, Outland, Witness, Judge Dredd, Captain Phillips and of course Star Wars as Y-Wing Gold Leader John ‘Dutch’ Vander, a role he reprised in 2016’s Rogue One.

To Angus’ many friends, colleagues and family we send our deepest condolences.
