Actor Ray Stevenson has died aged 58. Stevenson was known for films including King Arthur and Punisher, as well as his work in a Star Wars spin-off.
The Northern Irish actor's representatives confirmed Stevenson died on Sunday. No further details were immediately made available, the PA news agency said.
Stevenson also starred in multiple television shows including as soldier Titus Pullo in the BBC/HBO series Rome from 2005-2007, as well as the spin-off series for the Star Wars franchise. He starred as Porthos in the 2011 film The Three Musketeers, alongside Luke Evans, Matthew Macfadyen and Milla Jovovich, and was in Divergent with Kate Winslet and Zoe Kravitz in 2014.
The Peter Mayhew Foundation, set up by the actor who played Chewbacca in the Star Wars films, tweeted: “We are sad to hear of the passing of Ray Stevenson. You may recognize Ray as Baylon Skoll from the upcoming Ahsoka show on Disney+. You may also remember his work as the voice of mandalorian super commando Gar Saxon in The Clone Wars. Our sincerest condolences to his family.”
