    “LOS ANGELES (AP) — Anton Yelchin, a charismatic and rising actor best known for playing Chekov in the new “Star Trek” films, has died at the age of 27. He was killed in a fatal traffic collision early Sunday morning, his publicist, Jennifer Allen confirmed.

    Yelchin started small with roles in indie films and various television shows, before breaking out in films like the crime thriller “Alpha Dog” and the teenage comedy “Charlie Bartlett.” His biggest role to date has been in the rebooted “Star Trek” films — the third of which, “Star Trek Beyond” comes out in July.

    Yelchin, an only child, was born in Russia. His parents were professional figure skaters who moved the family to the United States when Yelchin was a baby. Yelchin’s family requests privacy at this time.”

    Regardless of what people may think of JJ Trek, the actors did a great job of portraying the Original crew.

    Only 27 years old, man this sucks.

    R.I.P.

    This time not of old age or anything, but of a young actor, a year older than me, who did a hell of a job being Chekov in the JJ films… Has died.

    Question I’m sure people will have, what will they do in the next movie that was or still is coming out this year and what will they do on future movies, if plans for more. We shall see in time i suppose… In time.

    RiP Anton Yelchin.

    Yup, I made this 😛
