A man with a grand vision and the biggest of hearts... Gone too soon.
Talented animator who worked on the famous Spider-Man and My Little Pony projects, Luis de la Rosa, has passed away at the age of just 34. The star, whose credits included some great projects, died after being hit by a train in France, while he was attending the film festival.
As per local media outlets, he was a man of great talent and was so passionate about all of his work. At the time of his death, he was reportedly walking along the railway tracks in a densely populated area accessible to the public. This is where he strayed too close and ended up getting struck by a Leman Express locomotive at about 8 pm local time.
The conductor had spotted de la Rosa ahead and sounded a warning horn to no avail. He called emergency services, but the illustrator was soon pronounced dead at the scene.
