From Wiki

Robert Francis Vaughn (November 22, 1932 – November 11, 2016) was an American actor noted for his stage, film and television work. His best-known TV roles include suave spy Napoleon Solo in the 1960s series The Man from U.N.C.L.E.; wealthy detective Harry Rule in the 1970s series The Protectors; and formidable General Hunt Stockwell in the 5th season of the 1980s series The A-Team. In film, he portrayed quiet, skittish gunman Lee in The Magnificent Seven, Major Paul Krueger in The Bridge at Remagen, the voice of Proteus IV, the computer villain of Demon Seed, Walter Chalmers in Bullitt, Ross Webster in Superman III, and war veteran Chester A. Gwynn in The Young Philadelphians which earned him a 1960 Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor.

As grifter and card sharp Albert Stroller, Vaughn appeared in all but one of the 48 episodes of the British television drama series Hustle (2004–2012). From January to February 2012, he appeared in the long-running British soap opera Coronation Street as Milton Fanshaw, a love interest for Sylvia Goodwin, played by veteran English actress Stephanie Cole.

There's a framed photo of Robert Vaughn on the third floor of the Rarig Center of University of Minnesota. He used to perform in theater there.

I remember him from Magnificent 7 and U.N.C.L.E. but also from Blake Edwards' S.O.B. where he was a vicious crossdressing Hollywood studio exec, likely portraying someone he and Edwards knew. That's the film where Edwards' wife Julie Andrews flashed her tits. Wasn't he in some Roger Corman space opera too? Anyway, he trained in journalism before going into theatre. He always had a sleazy air about him. Bon voyage, Bobby.

I'd forgotten that he was in The Magnificent Seven.


There was a day when that film score was America's theme song.

Classic 1980 sci-fi yarn that Guardians Of The Galaxy owes a small debt to. Vaughn had a great anti-hero character in this.

Plus the titty spaceship. Loved that.
