Lance Reddick - Dead at 60 (TMZ)
- Thread starter oc_
- Start date
He was also pretty unique in that he hit a lot of different demographics and groups because he was prolific across different mediums and very different types of stories. Chances are you've seen or played at least one thing he was in that you really liked.
Thread on gaming side is big too.

I am legitimately gutted right now. I loved him as an actor.

Totally forgot he was even in it. That would have been my first time watching something with him in then, though him as Daniels in The Wire has been my abiding memory ofc. He even left a notable impression in a very small part in The West Wing. Hell of a career.

Damn, this came out of nowhere, I loved his work. Not to mention that his gif is one of those legendary ones, and actually fits the situation:

Yeah, only about four episodes of Lost but he definitely left an impact.
Can't imagine what "natural causes" means, he was in incredible shape and sixty is pretty damn young.

This is sad news and he will be missed. He was a commanding talent and super generous human being irl. I will always remember his performances and the man behind them.
It irks me when people miss label deaths in threads. Using "dead" gives no respect or context. This is a "passing," and as such should be labeled so. When someone dies of/from something they have not just merely passed but have "died." Be it from illness or an accident. Same with "murdered," when people have been a victim. And if you're not sure which to label it use "passed" or "deceased," stop sensationalizing death and give respect where/when appropriate.
Damn this headline shocked me. A damned shame. Just a few days ago I was submitting fan questions to him for some interview he was gonna do. He played my favorite character in john wick and I'm looking forward to seeing more of him next week. I guess it might be the last thing I watch him in.
What a horrible headline to wake up to. I legit thought I was seeing things.
RIP to a legend. Will miss his presence in everything. Will be bitter sweet with JW and Destiny now for sure.

unfortunately sometimes people have congenital defects that are just ticking time bombs. literally in great shape their whole life and just drop dead. had a friend from HS, was in great shape, was out jogging and his heart just stopped, cardiac arrest. not a heart attack, it just... stopped, some electrical signalling thing. turned out he had some congenital heart defect no one ever knew about or discovered, and it caused no issues prior to that. left behind a wife and two young daughters.
More Guardians are gathering around him and paying tribute at the Tower.
Still can't believe this, man.
Yup, I logged in and people are holding a vigil basically in every instance of Tower. Warms my heart.
I have a coworker whose good friend had something similar happen. His heart just stopped. He's only alive right now because his girlfriend, who is a nurse, was with him and immediately acted.
Yeah latent heart problems are one of the biggest causes of sudden death in healthy people. There are lots of stories of people way younger than Lance was who were fit as a fiddle then suddenly had their heart give out. It's often a genetic thing that is unknown until it's too late. While we don't know cause of death I wouldn't be surprised if it was that sadly.
