Another tragedy has occurred with the death of Nic Cupac, a crew member in the upcoming Indiana Jones film, who flew out to Morocco to assist with a tricky stunt.
The 54-year-old was discovered dead in his hotel in the Moroccan city of Fes, where he is believed to have died of natural causes.
According to The Sun, the late Cupac was one of 100 team members working on the blockbuster sequel.
‘One of the absolute finest — taught me so much when I was starting out,’ remarked one friend. Another person stated, ‘I’m heartbroken.’ Nic was a wonderful dude.’
The fifth and final Indiana Jones sequel, which was supposed to be released in 2022 but has now been pushed back to 2023, was delayed by three months this year due to star Harrison Ford suffering a shoulder injury.
The untitled film, which will also star Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Mads Mikkelsen, will be released thirteen years after the fourth film.
