Special Ops: Lioness star Mike Heslin dies, aged 30
Mike Heslin, best known for his role in Special Ops: Lioness, has tragically passed away. The actor, who was 30, died of an “unexpected cardiac event” on 2 July.
In an Instagram post, Heslin’s husband Scotty Dynamo revealed that he was unexpectedly hospitalised for a week. Although he was in perfect health, “doctors have no explanation for what happened”. “Michael was brilliant, selfless, talented, and a real-life guardian angel.
He single-handedly carried me through multiple rounds of cancer,” he wrote. “He was the first person everyone would call to share good news with, and he was the perfect person to call if they needed a shoulder to lean on or the best advice. “He truly was the sweetest, most caring, and loving man on earth, and he brought out the absolute best in everyone who had the pleasure to cross paths with him. “He moved through life with such ease and confidence, and turned everyone around him into a better version of themselves.
No matter how difficult things got, we knew that there was nothing we couldn’t overcome with Mike in our corner.” Heslin and Dynamo married in November 2023, and had been together since 2017.
