Mark Margolis is one of those people who you can likely recognize anywhere, in any part. His work in movies like Scarface and Ace Ventura: Pet Detective gave him a chance to be a part of projects that made pretty huge dents in the pop culture landscape. However, perhaps the greatest of such opportunities was in the role of Breaking Bad’s vicious antagonist Hector Salamanca; a role he reprised in the prequel series Better Call Saul. Today, his legacy is remembered in a bittersweet light, as Mark Margolis has died at 83.
THR reported that the iconic actor passed after “a short illness,” according to his son, Morgan Margolis. Also known as one of the many actors you may have forgotten were on HBO's Oz, and for his roles in the filmography of director Darren Aronofsky, Mark Margolis is also survived by his wife, Jacqueline.
