john hollis

Not much is known about John Hollis. He was born in 1931 in the United Kingdom and in 1980, at the age of forty-nine, he appeared as Lobot the cyborg aide of Lando Calrissian, administrator of the Bespin tibanna gas mine, in the Irvin Kershner film Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. He also appeared in the James Bond film For Your Eyes Only, where he portrayed Ernst Stavro Blofeld, another important bald character. Also appearing in the film For Your Eyes Only was British actor Jeremy Bulloch, who portrayed the character of Smithers. Bulloch is, however, most noted for playing the intergalactic bounty hunter Boba Fett, son of Jengo Fett, in the film Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. Thus, does the world come full circle.
