McCallum passed away peacefully on Monday, September 25th.
David McCallum, a prolific actor known for his work on NCIS, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., and multiple DC animated movies, has passed away at the age of 90. According to a recently-released statement, McCallum passed away peacefully due to natural causes on Monday, September 25th, while surrounded by his family at New York Presbyterian Hospital.
Born on September 19, 1933 in Glasgow, Scotland, McCallum's career began through doing voices for BBC Radio. He made his onscreen debut in the 1950s, appearing in projects like Robbery Under Arms, A Night to Remember, The Great Escape, and The Greatest Story Ever Told. McCallum got his big break through his role as Russian agent Illya Kuryakin in The Man From U.N.C.L.E., which quickly grew from a minor character into the co-lead of the show, alongside Robert Vaughn.
"For over twenty years, David McCallum endeared himself to audiences around the world playing the wise, quirky, and sometimes enigmatic, Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard," said NCIS executive producers Steven D. Binder and David North."But as much as his fans may have loved him, those who worked side by side with David loved him that much more. He was a scholar and a gentleman, always gracious, a consummate professional, and never one to pass up a joke.
