The legendary action star has passed away.

Best known for his role on 'Kung Fu' and more recently as Bill in Quentin Tarantino's 'Kill Bill' saga, David Carradine has died.

The actor was found dead in his hotel room in Bangkok while he was shooting a film in the country. He was 72.

Michael Turner from the U.S. Embassy has confirmed the death occurred either late Wednesday or early Thursday, but no other details have been revealed out of consideration for his family.
