RIP Nelsan Ellis

Wow just seen that Nelsan Ellis has died aged 39 from heart failure

Best known for his role Lafeyette Reynolds in True blood but in sevrel hollywood movies

True Blood star Nelsan Ellis has died age 38 from complications of heart failure. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/07/...s-aged-39/

His character Lafayette Reynolds was meant to die at the end of season 1 of true blood but his portrayal of the character made the character a poplar one amongst the views so the showrunners kept him in the show.

He was recently in Elementary where he was great as a former gang member turned undercover CI for Watson.

Really in shock that his died especially after seeing his fantastic performance in the last Elementary series. R.I.P.
