Throughout his career, Jones has portrayed a wide range of characters on stage and screen, but he is perhaps best known for his iconic role as the voice of Darth Vader in the Star Wars franchise. While he initially didn’t anticipate the immense popularity of his villainous character, Jones embraced his fame and even used it to have some fun during his travels across the country.

One particular anecdote shared by Jones highlights his playful nature and sense of humor. While on the road, he used “Darth” as his handle on the CB radio, much to the surprise and delight of truck drivers who recognized his voice as that of Darth Vader.
