R.I.P. Carl Weathers. It's impossible to sum up how cool, charismatic and hilarious he was. Apollo Creed is enough for god status, but when you're also great in Predator, Action Jackson, Semi-Tough, Happy Gilmore, The Shield, Arrested Development, The Mandalorian… what a life. pic.twitter.com/vaj5wsxHt2
