A crew member who worked as a rigger at CBS Radford Studios on the set of Marvel Studios' Wonder Man tragically died after falling from the rafters of a building on Tuesday morning, February 6.
"Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with his family and friends, and our support is behind the investigation into the circumstances of this accident," the studio said in a statement released after the news of their death.
The Marvel show is set to begin production in March after facing a series of shooting delays due to the WGA and SAG AFTRA strikes that halted many productions last year.
The mini series is being created by Destin Daniel Cretton — who previously worked with Marvel when he directed Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings — and stars Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Ben Kingsley and Lauren Glazier.
According to IMDb, the series revolves around Hollywood actor Simon Williams, who finds himself "thrust into the world of superheroes as he gets powers of his own, and becomes the new superhero Wonder Man."
