He was already a world-renowned actor with roles in Star Wars, Malcolm X, and Coming to America already under his belt, but many fans remember James Earl Jones as lovable Mr. Mertle who owned "The Beast" in The Sandlot. By far the most accomplished actor in the film, James went on to star in movies like Primary Colours and Clear and Present Danger. He also voiced Mufasa in The Lion King, and has won two Tony Awards, a Golden Globe Award, a Grammy Award, and three Emmy Awards for various roles.
