Milos Milos
(Serbian: Miloš Milošević) (July 1, 1941 – January 30, 1966) was a
Hollywood actor, a stunt double and bodyguard of actor Alain Delon.
Early days
In the 1950s Milos Milos and his friend Stevan
Markovic were involved in a streetfight in Belgrade. They met
Alain Delon, who was filming a movie in Belgrade. Alain Delon
hired Milos Milos and Stevan Markovic as bodyguards. Milos Milos
later moved to Hollywood, California.
Hollywood
As a young Hollywood actor Milos is best known
for his performance as a Soviet naval officer in the 1966 comedy
The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming and for his
titular role in the 1965 Esperanto horror movie, Incubus.
Death
In 1965, Barbara Ann Thomason (stage name
Carolyn Mitchell) began an affair with Milos. The two were found
dead in Mickey Rooney's Los Angeles house in 1966. The American
official inquiry stated that Milos had shot Thomason with Rooney's
chrome-plated .38 caliber revolver and then committed suicide.
The official inquiry provoked rumors and doubts
that they were actually both murdered in revenge for having an
affair.
