The Los Angeles Police Department reports that the actor was driving his BMW through Cahuenga Blvd. and Romaine St. when the car suddenly crashed into a nearby building, sadly leaving the actor dead on impact.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY “The world is definitely a much darker place today without the love and light of Leslie Jordan,” said the actor's agent David Shaul in a statement. “Not only was he a mega talent and joy to work with, but he provided an emotional sanctuary to the nation at one of its most difficult times. What he lacked in height he made up for in generosity and greatness as a son, brother, artist, comedian, partner, and human being.
Until his death, Jordan was recurring as Phil on the Fox sitcom Call Me Kat which is currently airing its third season. He recently wrapped up production on the film Strangers in a Strange Land as directed by Tracy Pellegrino, and was also set to appear as himself in an upcoming episode of the reality TV series, Trixie Motel.
