This man should have been Dumbledore after Harris died.

For real. Too bad he and Harris didn't like each other.

Nothing against Gambon though, he was great. Just not epic enough.

You're thinking of Harris and McKellen. O'Toole and Harris were very good friends.

So I am. Goddamn talented Shakespearean actors...
In that case Azkaban casting can go fuck themselves.

greatest name ever.

That would be Jean-Luc Picard.

Ric Fleihr has them beat.

jesus.

Dear All, It is time for me to chuck in the sponge. To retire from films and stage. The heart for it has gone out of me: it won't come back.

My professional acting life, stage and screen, has brought me public support, emotional fulfillment and material comfort. It has brought me together with fine people, good companions with whom I've shared the inevitable lot of all actors: flops and hits.

However, it's my belief that one should decide for oneself when it is time to end one's stay. So I bid the profession a dry-eyed and profoundly grateful farewell.

- Peter O'Toole.

I wish I could find one with an Irish flag.
