“Rob’s memory will live on through his passion for art and film as well as his three sisters, who meant the world to him,” his obituary posted by the funeral home read.
Cormier mostly played guest roles in a career that began in earnest in 2016 with a supporting turn on ABC’s Kiefer Sutherland conspiracy drama “Designated Survivor.” In 2019 he played the doomed junkie Kit Jennings on seven episodes of the Netflix horror series “Slasher,” according to IMDb.
In 2021, he was introduced on the Canadian series “Heartland” as Finn Cotter, the grandson of Al Cotter (Duncan Fraser) and a potential romance for Amy Fleming (Amber Marshall), THR noted. Scenes he completed for the upcoming 16th season, which begins Oct. 2, are expected to remain in the show, the Toronto Sun reported.
The show remembered him on Instagram as a “beloved member of the Heartland cast the last two seasons.”
UPtv, which carries “Heartland,” wrote that Cormier was “an amazing talent, gone too soon.”
He attended York University in Toronto before pursuing an acting career, according to his LinkedIn profile.
“Life hasn’t always dealt me the best hands, and I have been let down more times than I can count, but I always [persevere],” he wrote on LinkedIn.
