The news was first reported by Deadline.

“Julian loved life. He loved his family. He loved his friends. He loved his work, and he loved his fans. His deepest wish was to bring joy into as many lives as possible. We ask for support during this time to allow our family to grieve in privacy. And we wish for all of those to whom Julian brought joy to continue to find joy in life. We are grateful for the memories,” his wife, Kelly McMahon, said in a statement to the entertainment news site.

McMahon was born in Sydney, Australia, on July 27, 1968. His father served as the Prime Minister of Australia from 1971 to 1972.

For his final role, McMahon played the Australian Prime Minister in the Netflix series “The Residence.”
