According to a statement provided to Deadline from McMahon's wife, Kelly McMahon, he "died peacefully this week after a valiant effort to overcome cancer." He was 56. "Julian loved life. He loved his family. He loved his friends. He loved his work, and he loved his fans. His deepest wish was to bring joy into as many lives as possible," the statement provided to Deadline continued.
