R.I.P Anton Yelchin
Anton Yelchin, the Russian-American actor most famous for his
portrayal of Pavel Chekov in the rebooted Star Trek movies, has been
killed in an accident with his own car.
According to reports, the 27-year-old was found dead on Sunday
morning, seemingly crushed between his Jeep Cherokee and a security
fence at the bottom of his Los Angeles home's steep driveway.
The actor was reportedly found by friends concerned by the fact that
he hadn't shown up to a late-night rehearsal. LA police say he had just
gotten out of the car when it rolled back and pinned him to his gate.
Yelchin was born in St Petersburg to professional figure skaters who
moved to the US soon after his birth. He played Chekov in 2009's Star Trek and 2013's Star Trek Into Darkness and is due to appear in the third Star Trek movie, Star Trek Beyond, next month.
