\"SVU\" showrunner Warren Leight was one of the first to announce Wallwork's death, calling him \"a beautiful man\" and saying those on the show are \"heartbroken.\"

Wallwork also worked on the productions \"Madam Secretary,\" \"Bull\" and \"The Get Down.\"

Christopher Jackson of \"Bull\" flooded Twitter to grieve Wallwork. \"He was my friend,\" Jackson wrote, adding that he had a \"beautiful soul.\"
