Dang.

I contend it wasn’t a real science fiction franchise until David Warner was in it.

He portrayed Bob Cratchit in the George C Scott TV adaptation of Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol (1984).

Yes, he did.

“Other film credits include Tron (1982),”

I remember many years ago, he was at a fan convention here in L.A. and he was mobbed at his booth. Guess which movie those guys were talking about?

TRON. That’s all they were asking him about and he was very nice and damn friendly. His portrayal of Sark/Dillinger was spot on perfect.

“...Disney’s 2018 remake Mary Poppins Return”

Even if the writer isn’t any brighter than that, is there no editor anywhere around?

I saw him very early in his career when he played the lead in Shakespeare's Hamlet at the Royal Shakespeare Theater in Stratford on Avon, England, on June 20, 1966.

Many great performances. I really liked one of his early ones - King Henry VI in the Royal Shakespeare production of The Wars of the Roses (based on Shakespeare's Henry VI parts 1-3 and Richard III). Another favorite was as the poet Wordsworth in Ken Russell's film about the lake poets - Clouds of Glory. I loved hearing Warner read some of Wordsworth's lines. He was also very eloquent in Sam Peckinpah's The Ballad of Cable Hogue. He was great in pretty much every role he played.

Sad to hear. One of the acting giants who always raised the material he worked with. RIP.

No one mentioned his classic role as Jennings From The Omen?
Got his head lopped off by a sheet of glass in front of Gregory Peck.
