RJ Meath, who played Walter White Jr. in Breaking Bad, has died.

"RJ Mitte is best known for his role as Walter 'Flynn' White Jr. on AMC's acclaimed and award-winning series Breaking Bad," the statement continued. Using his own experience living with cerebral palsy, Mitt lends credibility to the role and builds a platform on disability awareness and inclusion. In addition to entertaining friends and family around the world, he served as an ambassador for United Cerebral Palsy and Children's Shriners.

Mitte also served as president of the Mitte Foundation, which supports philanthropic efforts and community initiatives, while using her platform to challenge stereotypes and promote greater representation for people with disabilities, the statement noted.

The cause of death was not immediately disclosed. Like her character on the Emmy Award-winning show, Mitte had cerebral palsy and was an advocate for disability rights.

According to TMZ, Mitte appeared on "The Joe Volpis Podcast" last week and talked about how "Breaking Bad" changed his life and about his close relationship with the cast years after the series ended.
