A cherished stuntman from popular Marvel films, including Avengers: Endgame and Black Panther, has met a tragic end along with three of his children in a horrifying road accident.

Late on Halloween night in Georgia, an unimaginable tragedy struck when the family’s vehicle collided with a broken-down tractor trailer on an interstate exit. Taraja Ramsess, 41, and his children couldn’t escape the collision unharmed.

The heart-wrenching news of Ramsess’ passing was confirmed by his mother, Akili Ramsess, who shared the devastating update on Instagram. In her emotional post, she revealed that two of Taraja’s daughters survived the crash, while his 10-year-old son Kisasi fought for his life in the hospital. Tragically, Kisasi later succumbed to his injuries.

“My beautiful, loving, talented son Taraja, along with two of my grandbabies, his 13-year-old daughter Sundari and his 8-week-old newborn daughter Fujibo, were killed the previous night in a horrific traffic accident,” wrote Akili in her initial post.

In a later update, she added, “Kisasi Adebayo joins his father Taraja and sisters Sundari and Fujibo on their journey. May God bless all their souls. You all will be missed.”

Taraja Ramsess was not just admired for his work in Marvel movies but also for his contributions to other renowned projects like Avengers: Infinity War, The Suicide Squad, and Atlanta.

Ava DuVernay, a celebrated director and Taraja’s friend, expressed her profound sorrow over his loss. She described him as a loving father who adored his children. DuVernay shared a heartwarming memory of Taraja’s commitment to his craft, recounting how he readily volunteered to be an on-camera actor for a scene lacking Black background actors. His actions inspired others to follow suit, exemplifying his leadership and dedication.

Our hearts go out to all those who lost their lives in this devastating accident. May they rest in peace.
