Gen V Producers Issue Statement Over Chance Perdomo’s Death

"We can't quite wrap our heads around this. For those of us who knew him and worked with him, Chance was always charming and smiling, an enthusiastic force of nature, an incredibly talented performer, and more than anything else, just a very kind, lovely person," Gen V's group of producers said in a new statement (via Deadline).

"Even writing about him in the past tense doesn't make sense. We are so sorry for Chance's family, and we are grieving the loss of our friend and colleague. Hug your loved ones tonight," the statement mentioned further.
