Name that Actor/Actress (or Role)

Whoever he is, he must like to play Asian characters.

You want a career acting, you play to your strengths.

Christopher Walken's a trained song-and-dance man, but he's not going in for those roles

most of the time-not if he wants the job.

(But if you want to see him dance, look up Fatboy Slim's video for "Weapon of Choice.")

In almost all his roles, he was not a regular, but someone who appeared for one episode.

With the exception, he stayed in the role as a regular, but had to stop acting

due to dying inconveniently to his career.

Mako?

George

No, but perhaps I should have used him for sheer number of roles. Mako Iwamatsu passed away

10 years ago, after a long career, and used his legal name. The actor I chose did not,

and passed away a considerable time before that- although both actors did appear in

MASH, but in different episodes.

He was part of the principal cast of a television show when he died. As he was being wheeled to the operating room,

he told one of the other actors "It must have been the coffee." In context, it was a memorable joke.

(Both Mako and this actor did of esophageal cancer. Coincidence? Common bad genes? No idea.)

His legal name was "Goro Suzuki," which does not remind me of his stage name.

What is this I"m seeing? The triple movie thread?

The "Detective Nick Yemana" reminded me of an old show. I googled that show and saw the actor. I have to admit that I wouldn't have remembered his name without the googling, so perhaps I must recuse myself.

George

No, post the answer. If you remembered Keye Luke, you remembered an answer at least as difficult.
