The Hollywood movie industry has once again been thrown into mourning as another film crew member has died on set.
According to reports, an Indiana Jones staff member for the upcoming film died on set.
Nic Cupac, 54, was among 100 staff members working on the blockbuster sequel when he was sadly found dead in his hotel in Fes, Morocco, according to The Sun. Before he died, he had traveled out to assist with a difficult stunt for the film involving a rickshaw.
When the actor was hurt, he was practising for a fight scene in the next film.
Mr. Cupac’s coworkers paid tribute to him, who is believed to have died of natural causes.
One friend wrote: ‘One of the very best — taught me so much when I was starting out.’
And another person added: ‘I’m heartbroken. Nic was such a lovely man.’
The fifth and final Indiana Jones sequel, which was initially due for release in 2022 but has now been pushed back to 2023, saw filming halted by three months this year after actor Harrison Ford suffered a shoulder injury.
Glamsquad magazine had earlier reported that Halyna H., a cinematographer died; was accidentally killed on Alec Baldwin Rust set.
