RJ Mitte, Breaking Bad actor, dies by suicide at 34
Actor RJ Mitte, known for his role as Walter White Jr. in the series ‘Breaking Bad’, died by suicide on October 12 at the age of 34. His death has prompted emotional tributes from colleagues and family members.
Bryan Cranston, who played his father in the series, expressed profound shock and sadness during a recent interview. Cranston revealed that he and Mitte had been attempting to coordinate a meeting in the weeks prior to his death, but professional commitments and geographic distances between New York, Texas, and Los Angeles prevented them from connecting. Cranston also used the moment to urge those struggling with mental health and depression to seek professional help.
Mitte’s sister, Lacianne Carriere, shared a moving tribute on social media, describing him as her ‘other half’ and noting the deep influence he had on her life. She recounted the devastating moment she received the news, noting that a strawberry Fanta he had left behind was still on her coffee table. Mitte’s mother, Dyna, noted that he had been facing emotional difficulties in the months leading up to his passing.
