Ken Lally Obituary, Voice Acting Star Death Shocks Family

 

He was not on the list.

Actor Ken Lally, best known to gamers for his work on the fifth Resident Evil title in which he performed Albert Wesker’s moves as a mocap actor, has died at the age of 52. He also voiced the character of Robert Kendo, a gun store owner, in the remakes of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3.

The loss was first reported by his co-star Karen Dyer, who played Sheva Alomar in Resident Evil 5. In addition to his work in the Resident Evil universe, Ken Lally has also played roles in a variety of other video games, including Mortal Kombat 9, where he voiced the characters Smoke, Goro and Shinnok. In addition, his voice sounded for the character Klaus Kreutz in the shooter Wolfenstein: The New Order.

Ken has also appeared in various roles in films and TV series, where his projects include roles in the series “Heroes” and “General Hospital”.

Ken was trained in London at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre and the University of Westminster; also in NYC at the National Shakespeare Conservatory and the London Classic Theatre School. He also has a B.A. in Theatre from St. Lawrence University. He tackled the hardest role of his career, playing "Macbeth" in Las Vegas where he performed in front of more than 3,000 people a night for the very successful, and critically acclaimed month long run. In LA, Ken trained for film and TV under coach, Cameron Thor; and his two favorite screen roles were on TV: the first on "General Hospital", where he played "Greg", a mob accountant for the show's resident gangster, "Sonny Corinthos"; the second on ""Heroes", where he played a notorious super villain known only as "The German". He started studying Martial Arts nearly 40 years ago, and in '98 found himself at Benny "The Jet" Urquidez's "Jet's Gym", and Sensei Benny quickly got him into stunts and action acting. Since then he's been killed and/or beaten up on film, TV, and in video games.
