Last week, it was sadly reported that “The Wire” actor Lance Reddick was found dead at his Studio City home on March 17. His wife Stephanie was the one who dialed 911 after finding him collapsed in the backyard.
At the time, law enforcement sources said his death appeared to be of natural causes–but now, the cause of death has been revealed.
A death certificate, obtained by TMZ, lists Reddick’s immediate cause of death as Ischemic Heart Disease as well as Atherosclerotic Coronary Artery Disease. The document also states Reddick was to be cremated.
Just before he died, Lance was doing a press tour for the “John Wick: Chapter 4” film … and he even had an appearance scheduled on Kelly Clarkson‘s show for the week after he passed away.
Lance’s castmates honored him by wearing blue ribbons to the movie’s premiere in Los Angeles, and Keanu Reeves shared some touching words about his friend.
Reddick posted a photo one day before his sudden death at home with his pups that he absolutely adore.
Lance is mostly famous for his role in HBO’s “The Wire” where he played Baltimore Police Department officer Cedrick Daniels in all 5 seasons of the show.
Other credits include “Fringe,” “Bosch,” “Oz” and “Lost” … he also appeared in films such as “Angel Has Fallen” and “Godzilla Vs. Kong.”
His wife seems to be managing his social media pages now, and shared a clip of a video in his rememberance.
Lance was 60-years old. R.I.P.
