With credits piling up on shows like Daredevil, Ramy, and The Blacklist, plus a memorable turn in the horror hit You're Next, it really felt like Nicholas Tucci was just hitting his stride. That momentum made the news of his death on March 3, 2020, all the more shocking.
He was only thirty-eight when he passed away, and it was revealed by his father, Alexander, via Facebook that he had been secretly fighting cancer. Tucci had made the deliberate choice to shield the public from his diagnosis because he wanted to keep chasing his artistic goals and working on set without his illness defining his career.
