Kubrick had chosen Rain for the role after hearing his flat delivery in a space documentary, which he described in Kate McQuiston's book on his filmmaking as "the intelligent friend next door quality, with a great deal of sincerity, and yet, I think, an arresting quality." He arguably inspired virtual assistants such as Apple's Siri and Amazon's Alexa in the iPhone and Google Home devices, respectively.
HAL is a sentient computer in the 1968 film, controlling a spaceship bound for Jupiter and interacting with its crew before eventually seeking revenge on the astronauts for plotting to shut down the malfunctioning AI. "Rain had deep respect for Kubrick and as a result sought to protect the voice from exploitation, declining a string of commercial requests for it over the years," he said. "Canadian theatre has lost one of its greatest talents and a guiding light in its development," the festival's artistic director Antoni Cimolino said in a statement.īorn in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Rain began performing as a child actor on CBC Radio before going on to work on stage - having once understudied Alec Guinness ("Star Wars") in Richard III in Stratford - and in film, racking up more than 40 acting and voice credits from 1955 to 1995.īut, Cimolino noted, "it was as HAL that Rain made an indelible mark on popular culture."
He was 90.Īccording to the Stratford Festival, a repertory theatre festival of which he was a founding member, Rain died in hospital near Toronto of natural causes Sunday morning. Douglas Rain, the Canadian actor who voiced vengeful supercomputer HAL 9000 in Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey," a precursor of artificial intelligence in smartphones, has died.
