Default Anton Yelchin (Chekov in Star Trek movies) dies in auto accident at 27.

He was run over by his own car in his driveway.

This is brutal. It kind of reminds of that women who go crushed by her own car in a parkade when she half stepped out to reach for a ticket machine.

Geez! What a freak accident.

Something like this happened to a kid I knew. He put the car I neutral and it started to roll so he got behind it to try and stop it. He was crushed between the car and his garage.

He has some really good performances from when he was younger.

Charlie Bartlett - He plays a kid reselling the drugs his therapist prescribes to him to his prep-school mates. Opposite Robert Downey Jr.

Alpha Dog - This movies is pretty meh, but Yelchin is excellent in it.

Odd Thomas - I saw this recently, I guess it's based on a book. It's pretty cool. He's a kid who can see how people will die and the spirits that haunt them. I'd recommend.

He was always rumored for Spiderman roles. I wish he had played him at some point.

Brutal.

Wondering if this is related to the "What Happens When You Die" thread.

27 year old guy, trucking along with a great acting career, promising future and then you are pinned by a car and gone.
