Moses J. Moseley Of “The Walking Dead” Fame Has Passed Away At Age 31

An actor most noted for his role as one of Michonne’s zombies named Mike on The Walking Dead has died. 

Thirty-one-year-old Moses J. Moseley was found dead last week in Stockbridge, Georgia near the Hudson Bridge. Moseley’s family told the news outlet that nobody had heard from the actor since last Sunday. Loved ones filed a missing person’s report on Wednesday, and tracked his vehicle using the Onstar system that was active in the car. His body was discovered shortly after. 

Moseley reportedly died from a gunshot wound, and police are investigating to determine if he was murdered or the shot was self-inflicted. 

The official Twitter account for The Walking Dead posted a tribute to the actor on Monday. 

“Our thoughts and prayers are with our #TWDFamily member Moses J. Moseley.”

 

Fans and co-stars also left condolences. 

 

Moseley’s Georgia-based managers, Avery Entertainment, also shared the news of the actor’s death on their Facebook page.

“With a heavy heart, we at Avery Sisters Entertainment offer our sincerest and deepest condolences to the family and friends of our actor, Moses J. Moseley. We are truly saddened,” the post read.

“Moses was a phenomenal actor who has appeared in movies such as “The Walking Dead”, “Queen of the South”, and “American Soul”, but MUCH more than that, he was an AMAZING person!”

“For those who knew him, he was the kindest, sweetest, most generous person you would ever meet. We will miss you dearly,” it continued.

“Rest in Heaven! ❤️‍ Gerra and Demia Avery”

In his last Instagram post, the handsome actor posted his rendition of the #10YearChallenge.

 

According to Moseley’s IMDB, his career began in 2010. During his teen years, the tricenarian struggled with being overweight and weighed in at 300 pounds. Two years later, the dedicated actor changed his diet and worked out. He lost over 150 pounds. Outside of The Walking Dead, Moseley co-starred in HBO’s Watchmen, Queen of The South and various shows on BET. His roles as one of Michonne’s pet zombies even landed him on the cover of Entertainment Weekly with Danai Gurira in February 2014. 

The humble actor expressed his gratitude for the opportunity on his IG.

“I just want to thank everybody for [their] awesome comments you guys really made me feel you support me and my career. Much love.”

Our prayers go out to his family.
