R.I.P Richard Kiel

Richard Kiel, who became famous for portraying the James Bond villain, Jaws ... died Wednesday afternoon at the age of 74 ... TMZ has learned.

Kiel starred in dozens of movies over the span of 50 years ... though his Jaws character became his most iconic role after debuting in 1977's "The Spy Who Loved Me" alongside Roger Moore. He returned in "Moonraker" two years later.

The 7-foot-2 Kiel also co-starred with Adam Sandler in the golf classic "Happy Gilmore."

Kiel had broken his leg last week and was in a hospital in Fresno, CA. A family member tells us he passed away this afternoon in the hospital -- and it's unclear if his death was connected to the leg injury.

He actually aged really quickly within the last few years. I saw an interview of his from a few years ago and he looked great and then a recent one and well, age caught up with him in a hurry.

I believe  his was the only repeat villain in a Bond film.  Sad to see him go, a very nice man from what I know of him.

May he rest in peace.  Grew up watching him in Bond films (the first movie I ever saw in theaters was a Bond film) but Jaws was not the only repeat villain.  Ernst Stavro Blofeld was as well.


Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Number 1) is James Bond's greatest nemesis. A terrorist mastermind who is in pursuit of obtaining power in hopes to take the world and change the face of history. He is the founder and leader of the infamous underground terrorist organization, SPECTRE, the Special Executive for Counterintelligience, Terrorism, Revenge, and Extortion. The worldwide criminal organization has been behind the events of three of the original Ian Fleming Bond novels and the Bond films including, "Dr. No", "From Russia With Love", "Thunderball", "You Only Live Twice", "On Her Majesty's Secret Service", and "Diamonds Are Forever".

According to the novel, Thunderball, Blofeld was born in May 28, 1908 (the same date to Ian Fleming's birthday) to a Polish father and Greek mother in Gdynia. During his time of education, he entered the University of Warsaw and studied political history and economics, then further education to the Warsaw Technical Institute where he studied engineering and radionics... http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0000302/bio
