Bruce Glover — a veteran character actor and father of Crispin Glover — has died … TMZ has confirmed.
Crispin announced the news by posting several pictures of his dad from throughout the years … some of the two of them together, others just featuring Bruce.
A rep for Crispin confirmed the news to us as well … though they did not disclose a cause of death.
Bruce nailed down his first roles in the late 1950s … appearing in a couple uncredited TV roles before making his way onto well-known programs like “Perry Mason” and “My Favorite Martian” in the 1960s.
Glover regularly popped up in some major motion pictures in the years that followed … grabbing parts in flicks like “Chinatown” and playing the assassin Mr. Wint in the James Bond film “Diamonds Are Forever.”
