Today we received sad news. Actor Anton Yelchin passed away at the age of 27 on June 18th..
I myself learned of this through a post on Facebook by George Takei and a Twitter post by Karl Urban earlier today. With how close the cast of the new Star Trek movies has become, I extend my condolences to you all for your loss, and more importantly extend the same to the Yelchin family. Anton had an illustrious career, with many of us remembering him as a child actor from Steven Spielberg’s Taken miniseries. I will remember him as Chekov in the new Star Trek movies. A perfect fit for him, and he handled the role perfectly. You will be sadly missed.
