Luke Perry, the star of shows like 90210 and Netflix's Riverdale is no more. The actor had suffered from a massive stroke last Wednesday and was admitted to a hospital in Burbank. Though the doctors tried their best, the damage from the stroke was too extensive and Luke died on March 4. He was just 52. Luke Perry is survived by his fiance Wendy Madison Bauer and his children Jack and Sophie. Riverdale Star Luke Perry Dies At The Age of 52 After Suffering From Massive Stroke.

Luke Perry is currently seen playing Fred Andrews, the father of protagonist Archie in the Netflix show Riverdale. Fred Andrews is a major player in the series, and Luke Perry's performance has got him a lot of praise. Riverdale is currently in its third season, so we are not sure if the showrunners will write off the character or replace the actor.

Before Riverdale, the actor was quite popular playing the lead in the '90s teen series 90210. Luke Perry's movie career, though, wasn't as prolific as his television innings. However, Luke was all set to star in the biggest film of his career in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time in Hollywood.

Based on the Manson cult murders in the '60s, Once Upon A Time in Hollywood features an ensemble cast in Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Al Pacino, Margot Robbie, Emile Hirsch, Damian Lewis, Bruce Dern, Dakota Fanning, Scoot McNairy, Lena Dunham, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Kurt Russell, Timothy Olyphant and James Marsden. Once Upon A Time in Hollywood First Look: Leonardo DiCaprio & Brad Pitt Make The '60s Sexy Again For Quentin Tarantino's Next.

Luke Perry is reportedly playing Wayne Maunder in the film, a real-life actor who was a part of the show Lancer. The actor had already shot for his portion in the film, that is currently in post-production. Once Upon A Time in Hollywood is scheduled to release on July 26, 2019. While the movie's cast and Quentin's legacy was enough reason to anticipate the movie, Once Upon A Time in Hollywood now becomes tragically special for being Luke Perry's final screen appearance. May his soul rest in peace!
