Ron O'Neal, who played one of the coolest characters in blaxploitation movies, has died of cancer aged 66. Superfly made him a star, but it was shortlived as the follow up, Super Fly TNT, flopped and he was relegated to supporting roles for the rest of his career in films like The Master Gunfighter, A Force of One, When a Stranger Calls, Red Dawn and Original Gangstas, which saw him united with his fellow seventies action stars. |
