In a World…..

Legendary US voice over artist Hal Douglas passed away on March 7 at the age of 89.

His movie trailer work included films like Philadelphia, Forrest Gump, and Lethal Weapon.

Hal once said: "I'm not outstanding in any way. It's a craft that you learn, like making a good pair of shoes. And I just consider myself a good shoemaker."

You may not recognise the name but you'll remember the voice.
