According to the Associated Press, actor Ricardo Montalban has died. He was 88.
Montalban played one of Star Trek greatest villains, Khan Noonien Singh, in the first season TOS episode "Space Seed".
Khan was a superhuman tyrant who once controlled more than a quarter of the Earth during the Eugenics Wars of the 1990s. After being revived in 2267 by the crew of the Enterprise, Khan attempts to capture the starship, but is thwarted by James T. Kirk and exiled to a harsh world to create a new civilization with his people. The character returns in the 1982 film Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, set fifteen years after "Space Seed", in which Khan escapes his imprisonment and sets out to seek revenge upon Kirk.
From 1977 to 1984 Montalban starred as Mr. Roarke in the television series Fantasy Island. He won an Emmy Award in 1978, and a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Screen Actors Guild in 1993.
