Canadian actor Stewart McLean has been found dead after the Royal Canadian Mounted Police announced Thursday that his missing person case was turned into a homicide investigation.
Canada’s Integrated Homicide Investigation Team announced on Friday that McLean’s remains were located in the Lions Bay area, per People. Lucas Talent, the Vancouver-based talent agency that represents the actor, shared a tribute in his honor on Facebook.
“It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to our beloved client, Stew McLean,” the post reads. “He was always such a pleasure to deal with — dedicated, professional, eager, and endlessly funny! Many casting directors have reached out to share their condolences with Stew’s family and with our agency, and every message says the same thing: what a truly great guy he was, and how deeply he will be missed.”
McLean was reported missing on May 18, and was last seen on May 15 at his home in Lions Bay. The RCMP began seeking public assistance in the pursuit of finding the actor on May 19.
“Squamish RCMP initiated an investigation and, through investigative efforts, uncovered evidence that led investigators to believe Mr. McLean was the victim of a homicide,” Canada’s Mounties said in a Thursday press release.
“On May 20, IHIT (Integrated Homicide Investigation Team) deployed and assumed conduct of the investigation. Squamish RCMP continues to work closely with IHIT and the Integrated Forensic Identification Service (IFIS) to advance the investigation,” the statement added.
The actor has appeared in a season seven episode of Netflix‘s Virgin River, a second season episode of the Fox crime drama Murder in a Small Town, in the Paramount+ true crime series Happy Face, and the Lifetime TV movie The Killer Inside: The Ruth Finley Story.
