Richard Kiel Facts
His son "Richard George" appears in the film The Spy Who Loved Me (1977). He is the little boy on the beach pointing out to the upcoming car that "James Bond" is driving from the water.

Interviewed in Tom Weaver's books "Eye on Science Fiction" (McFarland & Co., 2003) and "A Sci-Fi Swarm and Horror Horde" (McFarland & Co., 2010).

Original choice to play the title character in the television series "The Incredible Hulk" (1978). After 2 days of filming it was decided that he was not "bulky" enough for the role. He was paid for the two movies of the week and replaced by Lou Ferrigno. He was happy this happened because he only had sight in one eye and the full contact lenses were bothering him.
