Jean-Pierre Marielle (12 April 1932 – 24 April 2019) was a French actor. He appeared in more than a hundred films in which he played very diverse roles, from a banal citizen (Les Galettes de Pont-Aven), to a serial killer (Sans mobile apparent), to a World War II hero (Les Milles), to a compromised spy (La Valise [fr]), to a has-been actor (Les Grands Ducs), to his portrayal of Jacques Saunière in (The Da Vinci Code). He was well known for his distinctive cavernous voice, which is often imitated by French humorists who considered him to be archetypical of the French gentleman.
