If you have a pulse you know who actor David Carradine is. He is best known for his role as Kwai Chang Caine in 1970s television series "Kung Fu" and his most recent work in Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill" movies and Carradine reprised the role in a mid-1980s TV movie and played Caine's grandson in the 1990s syndicated series "Kung Fu: The Legend Continues." Its ironic that in the film he plays Bill the antagonist in the film in which Uma Thurmans persona tries to kill, and in reality he ends up killing himself. David Carradine was found hanging in his hotel room in Bangkok, Thailand by a maid around 11:30am. He was in Bangkok shooting a film in which the title has yet to be revealed. Its a sad day in the acting world, David was truely a "Legend" and will be missed. With actors dropping left and right who am I gonna cast in some of these films im writing up?:(, You would think with all the time he spent on "Kung Fu" fighting bad guys, he'd be able to fight depression. I guess you can never judge a person's happiness based on their success but i'll tell you one thing if I was in his position (of course not being 72 and dead) i'd be very happy.
