Carl Weathers 1948 - 2024

February 02, 2024 by Justin Brady in Movies, Star Wars, The Mandalorian

Carl Weathers passed away yesterday, The Credible Nerds bid him a solemn farewell.

We were blessed to listen to him speak about his acting career and more specifically about his experiences on The Mandalorian at Star Wars Celebration panels over the past few years. Marc was lucky enough to able to meet him personally and get his autograph and speak with The Man briefly (see pic below).

As an athlete we knew him as Apollo Creed and Chubbs Peterson. If you wanted a hero he was known as Dillon or Combat Carl. And he taught us how to live Long and Prosper as High Magistrate Greef Karga πŸ–– (I said what I said). πŸ˜‚

Thanks for the great memories, laughs, and adventures. Whatever comes next we hope the first words out of your mouth are: "It's showtime!!!".
