Martin Landau, the all-purpose actor who showcased his versatility as a master of disguise on the Mission: Impossible TV series and as a broken-down Bela Lugosi in his Oscar-winning performance in Ed Wood, has died. He was 89.
Landau, who shot to fame by playing a homosexual henchman in Alfred Hitchcock’s 1959 classic North by Northwest, died Saturday of "unexpected complications" after a brief stay at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, his rep confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter.
RIP Martin Landau

Re: RIP Martin Landau
Guy was PHENOMENAL as Bela Lugosi in Ed Wood...but for me, one of his best roles was as a forensic pathologist in a little-known "filler" TV police procedural show called The Evidence.
I wish I could find some clips to show off.
