It's been confirmed this evening that British actor Chance Perdomo, best known for his roles in Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Gen V, has died following a motorcycle accident on Friday.

Little in the way of specific details have been revealed about the circumstances surrounding the 27-year-old's death, though it's been widely reported that no one else was involved.

Perdomo rose to prominence thanks to his work in the After film trilogy and was nominated for a BAFTA for his work in Killed by My Debt. However, his role as Ambrose Spellman in Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina put him on the map and his work as Andre in The Boys spin-off Gen V, set the stage for him to be a key part of that world.

"His passion for the arts and insatiable appetite for life was felt by all who knew him, and his warmth will carry on in those who he loved dearest," the actor's representatives at Shelter PR said today. "We ask to please respect the family’s wish for privacy as they mourn the loss of their beloved son and brother."

It sounds like Gen V season 2's filming start date will now be pushed back in the wake of Perdomo's passing and we'd assume some major changes will need to be made to the series. The show's producers have also issued a statement:

"We can’t quite wrap our heads around this. For those of us who knew him and worked with him, Chance was always charming and smiling, an enthusiastic force of nature, an incredibly talented performer, and more than anything else, just a very kind, lovely person. Even writing about him in the past tense doesn’t make sense. We are so sorry for Chance’s family, and we are grieving the loss of our friend and colleague. Hug your loved ones tonight."

Perdomo found himself caught up in a minor controversy last year when it was alleged that he followed social media accounts deemed misogynistic and transphobic. Prime Video appeared to respond to that by cutting him out of a promo for Gen V, but the whole thing seemed to blow over pretty quickly and he was clearly meant to be part of season 2.

Our thoughts go out to Chance's friends and family. As you can see below, the actor was active on Instagram as recently as two days ago, keeping fans updated as he presumably trained for his return in Gen V's next batch of episodes.

Tragic. Life cut way too short. May he rest in peace.

Spidey91 - 3/30/2024, 6:11 PM

27, what's up with that damn number?

TheMetaMan - 3/30/2024, 11:35 PM

@Spidey91 - I’m still surprised y’all haven’t figured it out yet. He was sacrificed. Blood sacrificed. It’s a typical thing in Hollywood because the industry is built on ritualistic ceremonies and occultist activity.
Hollywood is basically one big satanic cult. This young man was a sacrificial lamb. I’ve been studying occult science for years this stuff is truly fascinating.
What gives it away is the date of the death. This late actor now belongs to the 27 club. All sacrifices.

@TheMetaMan - Ah, yes. Everyone knows the Local 80 runs off starlet blood.

Urubrodi - 3/31/2024, 4:54 AM

@TheMetaMan - Guy just passed away and you come here with stupid jokes lol

TheMetaMan - 3/31/2024, 9:38 AM

@Urubrodi - No I’m being deadly serious and out of respect I won’t say anything further on the matter. The good news is I’m intelligent enough to not argue because only a fool would argue and try to justify their argument. The definition of stupidity is when you do not understand the truth, you are unaware, ignorant or oblivious like you, therefore you react to my comment with hysteria. Denial is the most common human response. You don’t understand occult science therefore you seek to ridicule others because the concept at hand is entirely alien to you, hence your ignorance and stupidity.

@TheMetaMan - dude go outside & get some fresh air.

EgoEgor - 3/31/2024, 7:01 PM

@TheMetaMan - I used to be into conspiracy theories. Like the deep down the rabbit hole conspiracy theories. And part of consuming it is both the high of knowing "privileged" information but also its just entertaining.

The problem is it [frick]ed with me, i started to believe everything was a conspiracy. It was a like a prism that I filtered everything through. I stopped when I realized that. The world, while evil, is a much simpler world.

Hollywood is just a place filled with narcissistic, nepotistic and privileged people who think they're better than others.

Just stop is my only advice, for your own sanity. People die young, it's a tragedy, you don't need to invite or conjure a satanic cult to except a simple truth of life.

EgoEgor - 3/31/2024, 7:06 PM

@Spidey91 - most of these are musicians who got famous young and drug abuse caught with them. It's also coincidence. A lot of young people have died at different ages.

Godzilla2000Zer - 3/30/2024, 6:12 PM

RIP was looking forward to seeing him again in Gen V

marvel72 - 3/30/2024, 6:15 PM

R.I.P gone too soon.

JFerguson - 3/30/2024, 6:15 PM

So so tragic. One of my favorites in the show and I liked how he was the most heroic of the bunch. Show won’t be the same without him damn. Rip

dracula - 3/30/2024, 6:19 PM

Didnt finish the sabrina show but what i remember of him i remember being good

Tragic, based on his wikipedia page, he didnt really get a chance to show what he could do

LukeCage2155 - 3/30/2024, 6:22 PM

RIP Chance Perdomo.

TheVandalore - 3/30/2024, 6:28 PM

Dang. That's horrible. Sad to hear. Hope his family finds peace.

DarthOmega - 3/30/2024, 6:29 PM

Damn he was a youngster. R.I.P bro. It's something about those damn motorcycles. Smh. Be careful y'all.

TheShape9859 - 3/30/2024, 6:33 PM

Damn...that's young. RIP

M3T4LL0 - 3/30/2024, 6:33 PM

A damn shame. Such a talented actor taken way way too soon. Rest in peace Chance!

hypersonic55 - 3/30/2024, 6:35 PM

Damn that's harsh and at 27 (what is happening with that number?). I only saw him in Gen V but he certainly left an impression as he was very charismatic and charming on-screen. RIP Chance.

clintthahamster - 3/30/2024, 9:59 PM

@hypersonic55 - a handful of tragic losses at 27 make the number seem significant, but it's mostly confirmation bias. Just folks trying to make sense of inconceivable tragedy.

LukeCage2155 - 3/30/2024, 6:50 PM

Damn, that sucks.

LukeCage2155 - 3/30/2024, 6:51 PM

RIP Chance.

DrReedRichards - 3/30/2024, 6:53 PM

Jesus Christ, that's young... Rest in peace.

TheVisionary25 - 3/30/2024, 6:55 PM

Damn , that’s truly shocking news…

I haven’t seen Gen V yet or his other work but had heard about his talent since Sabrina of which he was one of , if not the standout of that show apparently.

Sad to see such a rising young star be snuffed out so soon…

RIP Chance and my condolences to his loved ones at this time.

Origame - 3/30/2024, 7:02 PM

Oh wow. That's sad. He was a highlight in what I did see him in.

SummersEssex - 3/30/2024, 7:06 PM

That sucks. Man, that really sucks. Always easy to try to blame someone or something, but sometimes tragedy just happens and it's the absolute worst. Makes me appreciate what I have a little bit more. My condolences to those close to him.

Moriakum - 3/30/2024, 7:09 PM

So young... It breaks anyone´s heart. RIP.

Kadara - 3/30/2024, 7:09 PM

Damn that's so sad to hear, RIP.

bkmeijer1 - 3/30/2024, 7:11 PM

Was that part about the minor controversy in the article really necessary? Chance died too soon, no need take away from that. Horrible to (have someone close to you) die so young. May peace be found.

clintthahamster - 3/30/2024, 9:57 PM

@bkmeijer1 - can't miss a chance for rage clicks, even in the face of tragedy. The machine won't feed itself...

CyberBishop - 3/31/2024, 1:07 AM

@bkmeijer1 - It's Josh, of course it was because he is a hack.

THEKENDOMAN - 3/30/2024, 7:14 PM

Quite sad, I enjoyed watching on Gen V. May he rest in peace

itzayaboy - 3/30/2024, 7:15 PM

Shit that’s awful. Prayers to his family and friends. Gone too soon.

Nomis929 - 3/30/2024, 7:27 PM

So sad and so young. RIP.

DocSpock - 3/30/2024, 7:27 PM

Well, that's awful.

My sympathies to his family.

MisterDoctor217 - 3/30/2024, 7:33 PM

This is truly awful, he was so young and a good actor. I hope he is resting now, he will be missed.

I first saw him in the Sabrina show and he was a standout.

FusionWarrior - 3/30/2024, 7:35 PM

That's unfortunate, would have liked to have seen how his Gen V Character would progress. Always sad to lose a young talent.

Polaris - 3/30/2024, 7:36 PM

F*ck. Only 27... It's so unfair. I've only seen him in Sabrina but he was very good in that.

Demigods - 3/30/2024, 7:43 PM

Dude, I say this as a guy who's a professional Firefighter who was awarded a spot on the busiest ladder in the city (around 90-110 working fires a year), part time mountain climber specializing in climbing frozen waterfalls and tooling with the sharp ass ice axes and sharp ass crampons, and a former motorcycle ride....

motorcycles are simply too [frick]ing dangerous in today's climate of extremely inattentive and self-absorbed drivers. That's not to say the guy deserved it. Far from it. I have a Harley, but ever since I had kids, I refuse to ride it. It's just too dangerous. I still climb frozen waterfalls every chance that I get, head up mountains when avalanche danger subsides, and crawl into burning buildings (albeit I'm at a slower company now), but I refuse to ride my bike.

Too many people on the road in general and about 50% have zero business behind the wheel. Sucks the dude died so young

DanielPlainviewsGhost - 3/30/2024, 9:29 PM

@Demigods - I’ve been a 911 call taker for the past two years. Was never a motorcycle guy before but this job definitely makes me NEVER want to even get on one. Just had a fatal last week, guy on a bike rear ended a car and flipped over the car. Just brutal.
