Chance Perdomo, the talented young actor known for his roles in The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and the recent Prime Video series Gen V, has tragically passed away at the age of 27. Perdomo died in a motorcycle accident, as confirmed by his representatives in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. No one else was involved in the accident.
“His passion for the arts and insatiable zest for life touched all who knew him, and his warmth will live on in those he loved most,” his representatives said, requesting privacy for Perdomo’s grieving family and friends. Most recently, Perdomo starred as Andre Anderson in Gen V, a spinoff of the hit show The Boys, where he played a charismatic student with magnetic powers.
The producers of Gen V expressed their shock and sorrow, remembering Perdomo as “always charming and smiling, an enthusiastic force of nature, an incredibly talented performer, and more than anything else, just a very kind, lovely person.”
