My heart breaks for them."
Meanwhile, fellow Chilling Adventures star Skye P. Marshall also shared an emotional homage to Chance, remembering the kind of person he was.
"Chance was my baby," she noted on March 30. "A kind, precious man who's extraordinarily gifted, very intelligent, loving hugger, energetic, radiant force of nature with a beautiful vibrant soul and a bright childlike smile, moving to the beat of his own drum. We'd both light up every single time we saw each other."
In the wake of Chance's death, production for season two of Gen V will be pushed back, according to Entertainment Tonight.
