Tragic news guys and galpals. Anton Yelchin, probably best known as Chekov in the rebooted Star Trek series, has died in a car accident.
He was 27. This is simply a tragedy.

Damn, of all the actors in Star Trek's long list of cast members he was quite frankly the last one I'd expect to see pass away.
I don't think there where any regulars for the movies or shows who was younger then him. Quit sad, but that's how life is I suppose. Anything can happen at any time.

His publicist has said he died "in a tragic traffic collision".Saelune said:
So who knows if that means other parties were involved.
Terrible tragedy. But it sounds like something a 20something would do. He likely forgot his parking brake and paid dearly for it. Still very sad. I liked him in the Star Trek reboot and he shined in Terminator. I expect to see a dedication in Beyond. I'm curious how the franchise will deal with the loss in the future - recast the role or introduce someone new?
I always thought he had a very likable screen presence.
From the police department.
So, yah. His car was in neutral and it pinned him to his mail box. A tragic and terrible way to go. I hope his family is doing well (As well as one could hope), and hopefully some young people will learn a little about car safety from this.
Well that settles it, 2016 is no longer waiting for people to die of natural causes. 2016 is straight up murdering people.
27 is no age, R.I.P Anton.

Yeesh, poor guy, what a way to go. And the fact that he was only slightly older than me doesn't help...
My condolences to his family, friends, and co-stars.

He's slightly younger then me, and it's kind of freaking me out. I think I'm in the zone where bad, deadly things are going to start happening to me through sheer brute force of 'Days being alive.'CrazyGirl17 said:
Shit...That is some terrible luck. He was a favourite fresh personality out of the reboot. What an unexpected way to go. Hope his friends and family are coping ok.
Damn, what an awful way to go. And at such a young age, too. My sympathies go out to his friends and family.
Well, I must admit, that is a very poor way to die.
But, its not funny to me. Dude had a lot going for him. We'll never know why he left the car in neutral.
Dudes, park your cars securely.

I loved this guy in the Star Trek movies.
"Ayy Kepten! Kepten on ze brij!"
Sad to see him go. Oddly enough, I knew a guy who died the exact same way.
