Michael Parks, The Man Who Played Jack Kirby, Passes Away
Kevin Smith has announced the passing of actor Michael Parks at the age of 77. Smith refers to Parks as his cinematic muse. Parks has played a diverse array of characters over his career that go back to the early sixties where he appeared on Gunsmoke, the Untouchables and the Detectives. He appeared in the second season of Twin Peaks as Jean Renault and was consistently working up until the end. Some of his most recent work was appearing as Howard Howe in Tusk and as comic artist Jack Kirby in Argo.
Smith's post about Parks may be the most fitting tribute of all.
