A light has been dimmed too soon.
Owain Rhys Davies—a Welsh actor who, among other roles onstage and onscreen, appeared in Twin Peaks—has died at the age of 44, his brother Rhodri Davies confirmed.
Noting his brother’s death has come as “a great shock,” Rhodri wrote in his May 31 post, “While there are still questions that remain unanswered regarding the circumstances of his death, our understanding at this stage is that Owain passed suddenly, naturally, and peacefully.”
“The reach of Owain’s love, friendship, and generosity was vast,” the statement continued. “The outpouring of messages we have received over the past few days has been deeply moving and a testament to the impact he had on so many lives.”
Rhodri went on to detail the deep bonds Owain built with his friends, colleagues and loved ones, noting the actor was also a “brother to so many others.” He also promised to share additional information about Owain’s passing once the family had more clarity.
