Star Trek: Discovery Actor Kenneth Mitchell Dies at 49 After 5-Year Battle with ALS

LOS ANGELES – The art world was hit by extremely sad news. The star of the Star Trek: Discovery series died at the age of 49. Actor Kenneth Mitchell succumbed to an incurable disease with which he fought for 5 years!

The sad news was published by the devastated family through social networks X and Instagram. “It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Kenneth Alexander Mitchell, beloved father, husband, brother, uncle, son and dear friend,” it was written in the post. “Ken was widely known as an actor in many films and television shows.”

“He’s played an Olympic hopeful, survived the apocalypse, been an astronaut, a father, a superhero and starred in four unique Star Treks,” the statement continued. However, his most favorite “role” was his life – he was a loving husband and father to children Lilah and Kallum. “Regardless of his later disability, Ken discovered a higher calling to be more available to his children.”

In 2018, the actor’s doctors diagnosed ALS – amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which affects nerve cells in the brain. A year later, he ended up in a wheelchair, but he did not speak publicly about his diagnosis until 2020. ALS is a rare fatal neurodegenerative disease.
