See, see! The jab worked! He ain’t done died of COVID!
Drugs or Clot Shot.
If they don’t say the cause of death, my immediate suspicion is drug OD or suicide. Once an actor can’t get parts, it’s usually pretty permanent. A good agent should be prepping actors for that day.
Suicide.

It mentions suicide in the article….but not confirmed.
.
covered in tattoos, which means he hates himself, most likely suicide.
I do admit to making that evaluation before I read the article, but it backs up my point that almost all early deaths in Hollywood will either be suicide, due to not being able to work anymore and being out of funds, or drug use from being habituated to a looser lifestyle.
I think another one became a MMA fighter.
Never mind, that’s this guy…
He did more than just act. He did mma fighting awhile, and could train anyone in any number of martial arts he knew.
His acting career was tough though. First, started as a teenager (ie youth actor). Second, most of the time, masked. Neither factors helped him to get him other roles. He wound up reprising some appearances as an older adult in the power rangers reboots, but not much else.
According to the article, he died by suicide.
Sad isn’t it. ?

Re: 2 - Good grief, how embarrassingly ignorant.
While I was aware of this show I never watched it or had any interest in it. As such I’ve never heard of this actor until now. Suicide at 49 is sad I guess. RIP
It is sad.
It would have been worse without the jab though.
Is it okay with you if others joke a little? Do you have a sense of humor or is berating people all you can do?
