Antony Starr, Erin Moriarty, Jack Quaid, Karen Fukuhara, and Skye Marshall are among those who have shared their memories and condolences, painting a picture of a man who was not only a brilliant actor but also a cherished friend.
Perdomo’s journey from Los Angeles to Southampton, England, and then to the stages of London’s National Youth Theatre and Identity School of Acting, speaks to his dedication to his craft.
