"We are deeply saddened and heartbroken at the loss of our beloved friend and colleague Lance Reddick," they wrote. "He was the consummate professional and a joy to work with."
The statement continued, "Our love and prayers are with his wife Stephanie, his children, family and friends. We dedicate the film to his loving memory. We will miss him dearly."
On Twitter March 18, Stephanie Reddick shared a thank you message to fans who expressed their condolences. "Lance was taken from us far too soon," she wrote on her husband's account. "Thank you for your overwhelming love, support and beautiful stories shared on these platforms over the last day. I see your messages and can't begin to express how grateful I am to have them."
