Tony McFarr, Chris Pratt's longtime stunt double, died Monday, Fox News Digital has confirmed. He was 47.
"An exam has already taken place and cause/manner of death is pending toxicology results," the Orange County Medical Examiner's office told Fox News Digital.
McFarr, whose full name was Antonio McFarr, worked with Pratt on multiple movies, including "Jurassic World" in 2015 and "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" in 2017.
They reunited for "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" in 2018 after working together on "Passengers" in 2016.

On Thursday, Pratt paid tribute to McFarr in a written post he shared on Instagram.
"Devastated to hear about the loss of my friend and former stunt double Tony McFarr," the 44-year-old actor wrote. "We did several movies together. We golfed, drank whiskey, smoked cigars, and spent endless hours on set.
"I'll never forget his toughness. I remember he took a nasty shot to the head (in the title sequence of Guardians 2) and got several staples in his head - he came right back to work ready to go again.
"He was an absolute stud. He was always a gentleman and a professional. He'll be missed. My prayers go out to his friends and family, especially his daughter."
Pratt also posted photos of himself and McFarr in matching costumes and hairstyles while on the sets of "Jurassic World" and "Passengers."
In 2016, Pratt shared a behind-the-scenes snap with McFarr on the set of "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2."
"Here's me and my stunt-man Tony McFarr (also Tommy Harper stunt coordinator and our first AD Lars Winther) on set," Pratt wrote.
