    We are very sorry to report the passing of veteran actor Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa.

    You’d probably best recognize him for his work in the “Mortal Kombat” film franchise as Shang Tsung, as well as roles in the Oscar-winning “Memoirs of a Geisha” and “The Last Emperor,” as well as tv series “The Man in the High Castle.” He also had roles in John Carpenter‘s classic “Big Trouble in Little China,” “Star Trek: The Next Generation,” “Miami Vice,” and “MacGyver.”

    Tagawa reportedly passed away due to complications following a stroke. He was 75.
