Max von Sydow has died aged 90. According to the BBC, his family announced “with a broken heart and infinite sadness” that the actor died on Sunday.
The Oscar-nominated actor was best known for his five-decade film career, which included roles in The Exorcist, Minority Report and Star Wars: The Force Awakens. He also played the Three-Eyed Raven in Game of Thrones.
But Max von Sydow’s unmistakable voice will also be familiar to fans of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim. He played Esbern, an Elder Nord and one of the last remaining Blades who acts as the guide, advisor and mentor of the Dragonborn.
