I spelled his name wrong. Apologies and hope mod can correct it.

 

[LectureMaster]

A loss for Kojima san's Project OD.

[MayauMiao]

 

[yogaflame]

I remember him on Blade movie part 1. Condolence to the family of Udo. May he rest in peace. God bless his soul. Amen.

 

[MayauMiao]

DIdn't know Kojima met him.

 

[Pedro Motta]

RIP, what classic guy.

 

[TheSHEEEP]

(Also, can someone fix that threat title typo? )

 

[adamsapple]

DIdn't know Kojima met him.

He will (posthumously) be in O.D.

 

[Seomel]

[Revolutionary]

Damn, another film legend lost... RIP

Kojima tweeted about it, and it sounds like they weren't able to finish (or start?) filming his performance in OD:

 

[Kenneth Haight]

RIP. Always remember him from Johnny pneumonic. What a film.

 

[KloetenQuetsche]

Love him in ace ventura

 

[Dirk Benedict]

Fuck. We lost another Great one.
Rest in Peace, Udor.

 

[L*][*N*K]

Kojima says his part was going to be shot in 2026, so I guess he either gets recasted or they use him as a model with a different voice actor and motion capture, I highly doubt they will AI this situation that will be horrible for the game regardless of how anyone feels about AI even if his estate agrees to it

[ForAcademicPurposes]

Thanks Udo. You were brilliant.

 

[b0uncyfr0]

RIP

 

[Laptop1991]

RIP, i only knew him from C&C Red Alert 2 as Yuri, but what a performance, he must of been a really good actor.

 

[Darsxx82]

RIP

 

[Karim]

DIdn't know Kojima met him.

I would have been more surprised about the contrary knowing Kojima.

 

[MMaRsu]

 

[Clear]

A true legend of Euro Cult cinema. RIP.

 

[consoul]

One of a kind. RIP.

Not sure about the practicality or ethics of Kojima using his face in OD now. Time for a recast perhaps.

Maybe Udo had given Kojima permission to use his face and voice? We won't know until much later.

 

[Hudo]

RIP, legend

Red Alert 2 is also where I saw him first. Absolute legend.

 

[ReBurn]

RIP. Always remember him from Johnny pneumonic. What a film.

First thing I thought of.

Rest in peace

 

[Hohenheim]

Brilliant actor, and he played so many great roles.
His part in Lars Von Trier's "Riget" was pure nightmare fuel back in the day.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Loved his voice, smooth as fuck

RIP

 

[SJRB]

Bro I had no idea he played Yuri in Red Alert! Crazy to find that out.

 

[Trunx81]

He also was in the Far Cry movie.
RIP, legend.

 

[Mozza]

Sad day, great actor.

 

[808mate]

RIP.

Loved him in lots things, but his role in the Masters of Horror segment - Cigarette Burns (directed by John Carpenter) was a personal favourite.

 

[deriks]

Some people are born to portrait villains, and this is a hell of one

 

[xrnzaaas]

Damn, I never connected the dots that he was Yuri in Red Alert, maybe because he looked differently with that bald head and facial hair. RIP.

 

[Roni]

Guy was really fond of Brazilian cinema and acted on Bacurau and even in the upcoming The Secret Agent.

Very iconic looks.

 

[FoxMcChief]

Dude was great in everything. He must have been a great guy to have worked on so much. Talent will only get you so many roles. Being a talented good guy will get you more.

 

[Hookshot]

RIP Yuri. Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge are some of my favourite games.

Never understood why he got Gatling cannons though, seems basic and low tech for the psychic army.

 

[kurashu]

This guy was top tier. So many movies I've seen with him in it.

RIP

 

[roosnam1980]

RIP

 

[KuraiShidosha]

He was such a genuinely cool guy. He played roles that many other actors of his age and caliber would not even consider, and he always was a professional no matter how corny the job. I'm going to miss him dearly. I hate time, it's brutally unfair.

 

[Myuni]

Farewell, Commander!
