The global entertainment community is in absolute disbelief after news broke that legendary Hong Kong filmmaker and comedy icon Stephen Chow has tragically passed away following a mid-air emergency earlier today.
At 3:30 PM local time, Chow was reportedly on a private jet bound for China when the aircraft’s crew detected a dangerous fuel leak. The pilot immediately issued a distress signal, triggering an urgent mid-air safety protocol.
Fifteen minutes later, in a turn of events that has left fans shaken and heartbroken, Chow’s family and aviation security officials jointly confirmed his death.
