Godfrey Gao, the Taiwanese-Canadian model and actor best known for his work on The Mortal Instruments, has been remembered at the 92nd Academy Awards in Hollywood.

Gao was 35 when he collapsed and died on the set of a reality TV show he was filming in China in November 2019.

In 2011, Gao became the first Asian model to be signed by Louis Vuitton, and he played the role of Magnus Bane in the 2013 Hollywood action film The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. He also acted in a string of TV shows, including the hit series Remembering Lichuan.
