Chad McQueen, who played a supporting role in the original Karate Kid film, has died at age 63.

McQueen died Wednesday of organ failure at his home in Palm Desert, California, said his longtime attorney, Arthur Barens. TMZ.

McQueen was not only known as an actor, but he was also the only son of iconic star Steve McQueen.

According to his lawyer, McQueen had been suffering from progressively worsening organ failure caused by a serious injury he suffered years earlier that ultimately led to his death.

He was reportedly surrounded by his children and wife Jeanie in his final moments.
