Lance Reddick’s wife Stephanie Reddick remembers her husband a day after his death.
The actor, known for his roles in several projects including John Wick, The Wire, Fringe, Bosch, Lost and the HBO series Oz, died “suddenly … of natural causes,” his publicist Mia Hansen told on Friday morning .
Stephanie took to social media on Saturday to share a carousel of photos of the star on his Instagram account, writing, “Lance was taken from us far too soon.” The actor recently promoted John Wick: Chapter 4, the latest film the Keanu Reeves franchise, in which he plays Charon, the hotel concierge.
“Thank you for all of your overwhelming love, support and beautiful stories shared across these platforms over the last day,” she continued in her post. “I see your messages and I can’t express how grateful I am to have you.”
Lance has also worked as a voice actor on a handful of projects including The Vindicators, DuckTales, Rick and Morty and Castlevania, as well as voicing Commander Zavala in the Destiny game series.
“Thank you to the thousands of Destiny players who played in honor of Lance,” Stephanie added in the post’s caption. “Lance loved you as much as the game.”
After the actor’s death, the John Wick team and many Hollywood greats including Wendell Pierce, David Simon, Ben Stiller, Viola Davis and James Gunn also took to social media to pay tribute to the star.
Stephanie said a donation could be made to momcares.org in his hometown of Baltimore in Lance’s honor.
