The Terminal List actor Cedric Jones has died “suddenly,” aged 46, with the cause of death reportedly being withheld out of respect for his family and loved ones.

His wife and three children are “in shock” according to a Daily Mail report.

Jones — an actor and personal trainer best known for his role in the 2023 thriller series The Terminal List alongside his friend Chris Pratt — died on October 16, his company Beastie Boxing confirmed on Instagram.

The entertainment world is mourning the sudden loss of Cedric Jones, a talented actor best known for his role in this year’s thriller series “The Terminal List.” Jones was only 46 years old at the time of his unexpected death.

While the exact cause remains undisclosed out of respect for his family, the news has hit hard, leaving his wife and three children “in shock,” according to a Daily Mail report.

His company, Beastie Boxing, confirmed the sad news on Instagram on October 16.

In a heartfelt tribute, his gym described him as more than just an actor. “Cedric was a loving father, devoted husband, caring son, brother, community leader, and incredible friend who inspired others,” the post read.

The gym also emphasized his positive influence on people, saying, “He genuinely wanted everyone to become the best version of themselves. He was a gift.”

Jones’ journey to stardom wasn’t an easy one. Nicknamed “Beastie,” he rose from homelessness in Compton, California, to make a name for himself in Hollywood.

Notably, Jones landed a role as a security guard in “The Terminal List,” acting alongside his good friend Chris Pratt.

The two had previously worked together in the 2016 film “The Magnificent Seven.”

When “The Terminal List” came out, Jones was quick to show his appreciation for Pratt’s friendship and support. In a post on Instagram, he wrote, “He has been down to earth every time and always showed his faith.

He actually stopped filming to pray for my wife and kids while on set because of an accident.”

Jones used hashtags like #real, #actor, #faith, #star, #terminallist, and #dreamchaser to punctuate his message.

Jones also had a penchant for motivating others. His final Instagram post, shared just last month, was a call to action for people striving to improve their lives.

“Get focused! Stop strolling and worrying about what people are saying,” he encouraged his followers. He also told them to ignore naysayers, adding, “People will talk—don’t listen, people will point—don’t look their way, people will write about you—don’t give them your time.”

The abrupt passing of Jones has left a void not just in the entertainment industry but also in the hearts of those who looked up to him as a beacon of resilience and inspiration.

As a man who had faced significant challenges, Jones managed to transcend them and build a fulfilling career in acting while touching the lives of many along the way.

He wasn’t merely a gifted actor; he was a source of inspiration, a devoted family man, and a community leader.

In a world quick to highlight the flaws and failures of individuals, Cedric Jones stood as a testament to the human capacity for growth, change, and making a positive impact.
