Sir Christopher Lee, one of the most recognizable talents in the acting world, has this week passed away at the age of 93, leaving behind a career of memorable roles and iconic movies. You may recognize the actor for his roles in the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit movies, in which he portrayed the White Wizard Sarumon, or perhaps his portrayal of Count Dooku in the Star Wars prequel films Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, but his career has been flourishing for decades, including prominent roles as Dracula in a series of films and portraying the villain in the James Bond classic, The Man with the Golden Gun. Maybe the coolest element of Lee's long and awesome life is that he recorded a number of heavy metal music albums late in his life, this proving that we've truly lost a one-of-a-kind human this week.
