It’s well known that James Earl Jones was the voice of Darth Vader (he also provided the voice of Mufasa in The Lion King)-but it was not, in fact, Jones who provided the physical form of Vader. David Prowse, a British heavyweight boxer, played Vader on-screen-meanwhile James Earl Jones was so convinced the film would flop that he removed his name from the credits. Luckily, he was proved wrong, and no lays claim to the Vader voice with gusto.
