HossC Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 As we discussed recently in the Every Which Way But Loose thread, William Smith also played Clint Eastwood's opponent, Jack Wilson, in 'Any Which Way You Can'. Looking at his credits on IMDb, it seems he was still acting up until last year. Hobie Hartkins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was also in Conan the Barbarian, played Arnold's Conan's father. He was one of the better 'bad guy' actors. Skipper Duke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
