Well there were rumors about his sexuality. Thanks for confirming them.

Wow. Actually he was 91, if you count womb time. His birthday is March 31st. I liked him in the TV mini-series "Centennial" (1978) as the Scottish Mountain Man Alexander McKeag.
R.I.P.

He did some good work, braved going on stage, seemed to pretty much stay out of the scandal sheets minding his own business and leading what sounds like a good life. Kudos, especially in that business and at that time. RIP.

I remember when I was a kid and he starred in The Count of Monte Cristo. Never forgot that movie or his performance, he was great ...

Chamberlain brought an elegant comedic touch to his role of "Aramis" in Richard Lester's The Three Musketeers (1973) and The Four Musketeers (1974). Those films brought out the best sort of theatrical "ham" in its stars, especially Chamberlain and Frank Finlay ("Porto's").
