Actors We Lost In 2020
Description
Sadly, 2020 is another busy year for the Tinsel Town obituaries. From founding fathers of comedy and veteran character actors, to up-and-coming stars that never got a chance to truly shine, here are the actors we lost in 2020 not yet covered on Looper.
Former child actor Jason Davis died in February 2020 of a fentanyl overdose, according to the LA County Medical Examiner. He was 35.
Jason made his debut in the CBS sitcom Dave's World at age 10 and would go on to appear in the Chris Farley flop Beverly Hills Ninja as well as the Jackie Chan-Chris Tucker smash hit Rush Hour while he was still a child. But his biggest role by far was Mikey Blumberg in Recess — Jason voiced the animated gentle giant hundreds of times between 1997 and 2003.
Shortly after being arrested for possession in 2011, Jason appeared on VH1's Celebrity Rehab and opened up about his, quote, "scary" battle with heroin addiction. He's survived by his brothers, Brandon and Alexander, and two half-sisters, Isabella and Mariella Rickel.
