In Memoriam

Ian Holm (September 12, 1931 - June 19, 2020)


Another unrivaled actor has left us.

With 137 overall acting credits to his name, Ian Holm had been appearing for years on British televisions and in films when he gained a large following with Alien in 1979.

Among others, he appeared in Chariots of FireThe Fifth Element, The Aviator, Garden State, The Day After Tomorrow, and Ratatouille, but of course he will forever be remembered for playing Bilbo Baggins in Peter Jackson's unparalleled The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies.

He was 88.
