1 | Both he and his son, Pedro Armendáriz Jr. appeared in James Bond movies. Pedro Armendáriz appeared as Kerim Bey in From Russia with Love (1963). Pedro Armendáriz Jr. appeared as President Hector Lopez in Licence to Kill (1989). |
2 | The characters Armendáriz played in his final two films had almost identical names: In Captain Sindbad (1963) his character's name was el Kerim, and in From Russia with Love (1963) he played Kerim Bey. |
3 | Found out he had cancer during the production of From Russia with Love (1963). The schedule of production was altered so he could finish his scenes before his death. He wanted to finish the movie so his family could receive his salary. |
4 | Member of the jury at the Cannes Film Festival in 1961 |
5 | Even though he played several rude, fierce and uncouth characters, he was a very refined person. He was very fluent in English (he had to enhance his Mexican accent in some roles he had to play). |
6 | Was one of 91 people, along with John Wayne, Susan Hayward, and Agnes Moorehead, whose cancer was attributed to their exposure to radioactivity while working on the film The Conqueror (1956). |
7 | It's important to note that his self-inflicted gunshot suicide was prompted by his impending slow death from cancer, something he obviously wished to avoid. |
8 | Died of self-inflicted gunshot wound in Los Angeles. |
9 | Father of Pedro Armendáriz Jr. |
