25 Movie Talents We Lost In 2016

American voice actor Erik Bauersfeld may have only made a few film appearances during his life but considering a good number of those were films in the Star Wars franchise, we’d say that’s a pretty notable achievement.

In Return of the Jedi, he voiced both the role of Jabba the Hutt’s sidekick Bib Fortuna and Admiral Ackbar, reprising the latter role in 2015 in the first instalment of the Star Wars sequel trilogy The Force Awakens.

Beyond Star Wars, Bauersfeld also lent his vocal talents to Steven Spielberg’s sci-fi drama A.I. Artificial Intelligence and Guillermo del Toro’s gothic fantasy horror Crimson Peak.
