RIP Tiny Lister

[sprite75]

Klaang has gone on to Sto'Vo'Kor

Tommy "Tiny" Lister, who appeared in "Friday" and "The Fifth Element" and was also a professional wrestler, died Thursday, his manager Cindy Cowan confirmed.

Cowan said he was found unresponsive in his apartment in Marina del Rey, Calif. after displaying symptoms of COVID-19 in recent days. He had been working on a film and had to cancel shooting after falling ill, Cowan said.

"He was a wonderful guy with a heart of gold. Everyone loved him. A real gentle giant," she said, "We're all devastated."

In the pilot of "Star Trek: Enterprise," he played Klaang, the first Klingon to make contact with humans. Also on television, he appeared as Mr. Matlock's bodyguard in "Matlock" and on "In the Heat of the Night."
