Trevor Goddard, the Aussie actor best known for playing a Yank military man on JAG, was found dead over the weekend in his apartment of a suspected drug overdose.
The 37-year-old's death may have been a suicide, the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office said Monday. An autopsy will be conducted Tuesday. The drugs were said to have been illicit prescription pills.
Authorities believe Goddard died late Saturday night. He had talked to a friend on the phone around 9 p.m. and wasn't seen again until noon the following day, when his girlfriend found his body in a bed.
Although no suicide note was found, Goddard had apparently been struggling through a divorce and custody battle over his two sons.
He recently finished working with Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom on Disney's would-be summer blockbuster Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl playing an undead buccaneer named Grapple. The film opens July 11.
