A distinguished English character actor, Peter Bull was a portly, plummy presence on stage and screen for decades. He is best remembered for playing the glowering Soviet ambassador Alexei de Sadeski in Stanley Kubrick's 'Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb' (1964). A veteran of British theatre and film, he specialized in pompous officials, villains and comic grotesques, and was also a noted author and teddy-bear collector. An English actor of rich eccentricity, he died in 1984, a memorable fixture of mid-century British cinema.
