SG-1 Guest Star Cory Monteith Has Died

To Stargate SG-1 fans, he was the young Mitchell in the “young, hip SG-1 team” vignette in the iconic episode “200,” but guest star Cory Monteith made his mark as Finn Hudson in the hit musical show Glee. He was 31.

The Hollywood Reporter:

The actor was found at noon Saturday on the hotel’s 21st floor, Vancouver police said in a news conference. He checked into the hotel July 6, and was expected to check out Saturday. When Monteith missed his checkout time at noon, hotel staff went to his room and discovered his body.

Police said Monteith was with other people Friday night. An examination of hotel video footage showed him returning to his room alone early Saturday morning. Police believe he was alone when he died. No cause of death was given and no foul play is suspected, police said. Police are questioning the people he was with Friday night. It was unclear if he was with any Glee castmates or his longtime girlfriend and co-star Lea Michele. An autopsy is scheduled for Monday.

We at Solutions extend our condolences to Monteith’s family and friends.
