RIP. Was a great supporting actor in a lot of things I loved. Obviously, The Wire which is my favorite show of all-time. But, he was an interesting character on Oz, and I really liked him on Bosch. I'm also a big fan of the Horizon series on Playstation, and he was a great character on that in a motion-capture role.

Damn. I just finished Bosch last week too. The redheaded lady cop in the show also died recently.
I did have a thought that Reddick looked a little off in the final season, perhaps an illness?
Glad that he finished John Wick 4 for a last hurrah.

I thought he was great on Fringe. Fringe had a weak start but really found it's footing in later seasons and turned into a great show, but he was real solid throughout. The video game "Quantum Break" as well he was a standout, IMO. Obviously The Wire. Wasn't expecting this as I didn't think he was that old, I wouldn't have guessed he was 60.

 

[barriers]

He was funny too. Was great at playing everything straight.

example of sometimes you need to wait to get your big break

He had the look to pull off intimidating characters. I remember him most from Lost, but I also watched a bit of the Wire. 60 is too young, R.I.P.

Loved his character in Oz

 

[Jumptheshark]

curious why he did not attend the world premier in NYC of the new Wick movie-usually actors are forced to go to them

I'm going to take a punt here and suggest he may have been unwell.

RIP. 60 is way too young.

He was an unheralded actor who made every series he appeared that much better.

"f***ing Bosch"

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

RIP

He was great in The Wire and Oz

One of those actors who you would note in whatever performance he was involved in

 

[Jovavic]

Just finished The Wire this week, gutted. Loved him on Fringe, Lost, Bosch and his voice over work in the Horizon and Destiny games

Glad that he finished John Wick 4 for a last hurrah.

That's probably what killed him

Just awful news.

Really great actor and he seemed like a great person too. He posted a lot of videos on twitter, especially at the beginning of the pandemic, and he seemed very down to earth. My favorite role of his was in Bosch, but also loved his performances in the John Wick series and The Wire.

RIP. This one hurts a lot.

 

[Don'tcry4mejanhrdina]

Such a shame, he was good in everything I've seen him in.

 

[JackSlater]

Unfortunate. Oz and The Wire are two of my favourite shows ever, but since someone first exposed me to Reddick's... interesting music I always thought of this first if he came up. Sadly.

 

[trentmccleary]

Great actor who was a part of a lot of great shows. 60 is way too young. RIP

 

[DaaaaB's]

Damn, sad to hear. I thought he was great in everything I ever saw him in particularly The Wire. RIP

I saw him in everything but Fringe was severely underrated.

John Noble was great too.

Underrated actor

Very charismatic person. You could always feel his presence on screen. Shame that he died so young.
