Sir Sean Connery Remembered
The Beloved Actor Has Passed Away
“Sir Sean Connery will be remembered for his talent, his charm, his wit and the many unforgettable roles he played, but he will always be Indy’s dad to us. It was an honor to know and work with him and our hearts are with his family and loved ones.”
— Frank Marshall and Kathy Kennedy
“Sir Sean Connery, through his talent and drive, left an indelible mark in cinematic history. His audiences spanned generations, each with favorite roles he played. He will always hold a special place in my heart as Indy’s dad. With an air of intelligent authority and sly sense of comedic mischief, only someone like Sean Connery could render Indiana Jones immediately into boyish regret or relief through a stern fatherly chiding or rejoiceful hug. I’m thankful for having had the good fortune to have known and worked with him. My thoughts are with his family.”
— George Lucas
All of us at Lucasfilm mourn the passing of Sir Sean Connery, and join the world in celebrating his life and career. With a mix of elegance, grit, and humor, he embodied the magic of the movies. Farewell Mr. Bond, Captain Ramius, Professor Jones…you helped us all find illumination.
