Marvel shared the unfortunate news on their official website and remembered Ray Chan for his incredible work for many years. In a statement, Marvel’s Kevin Feige and Louis D’Esposito shared, “Ray was first and foremost a good friend to everyone at Marvel Studios. He was a talented collaborator who brought creativity and attention to detail to every frame of every movie he worked on, and who was able to bring out the best in each department he worked with. He was the nicest human being and was such a pleasure to work with, hugely generous, and the kind of person who could take the seed of an idea and turn it into something beautiful.”
Kevin Feige and Louis D’Esposito added that they were devastated by Ray’s passing and offered condolences to his family and friends. The reason for Ray Chan’s death is not mentioned.
