Roberto Orci, a prolific writer-producer known for his work on movie series such as Star Trek and Transformers, has passed away at the age of 51 due to kidney disease, according to Vulture. Throughout his career in Hollywood, Orci had a deep love for writing stories set in the realms of science fiction and action, as well as rejuvenating established franchises; his initial writing credit was for the 1997 television series Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. Afterward, he made an impact with his work on various cherished cult shows like Alias and Xena: Warrior Princess. In tandem with J.J. Abrams and longtime writing partner Alex Kurtzman (whom Orci met in high school), the trio co-authored Mission Impossible 3, before creating the TV show Fringe, which centered around a newly created FBI division. However, throughout his career, Orci’s most consistent collaborator was Kurtzman; together they wrote The Legend of Zorro, Transformers, Star Trek (2009), The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and more.
Xena’s portrayer, Lucy Lawless, expressed her sorrow over the demise of writer Bob. In her tribute, she wrote, “I’m deeply saddened by Bob’s passing. He was a wonderful, kind soul and incredibly gifted. My sincere condolences go out to everyone who cherished him.” Similarly, Joe Russo, a screenwriter known for ‘The Inheritance’ and ‘Hard to Kill’, mourned the late filmmaker on X. His post read, “Roberto Orci was an exceptional screenwriting talent of his generation, and his untimely death at 51 is a profound loss, as I’m sure there were many more remarkable works yet to be created.
