R.I.P. Anton Yelchin Dies at 27

Published

on

Horrible news as it’s been confirmed by Anton Yelchin‘s publicist that the 27-year-old actor was killed in a traffic accident this morning, according to Yahoo.

Beginning his acting career in 2000, Yelchin was probably known best to many audiences as Pavel Andreievich Chekov in the recent Star Trek films. However, to horror fans he was the title character in 2013’s Odd Thomas as well as Charley Brewster in the 2011 remake of Fright Night. Most recently, he appeared in the critically acclaimed thriller Green Room.

Yelchin was also going to voice the role of “Jim” in Guillermo del Toro’s Netflix original series “Trollhunters”. It’s unknown how much, if any, of his work was recorded.

We send our deepest condolences to his friends and family in this absolutely devastating time.
