The Moroccan artistic community lost one of its pillars on Friday morning, May 2, 2025, with the passing of the actor Mohamed Choubi at the age of 62, following a long and painful battle with illness.
The artist Latifa Ahrar confirmed in a statement to SNRTnews that the late actor passed away in the early hours of Friday at the hospital where he was receiving treatment.
Days prior, the late artist had been transferred to the military hospital in Rabat after his health deteriorated due to a serious illness that required an urgent liver transplant, a need that was sadly unmet despite previous appeals from his fans and friends in the artistic community.
Mohamed Choubi was known for a rich artistic career that spanned decades, making a distinguished mark in cinema, television, and theater, leaving a profound impact on the hearts of Moroccan audiences with his diverse roles and exceptional talent.
With his departure, the Moroccan artistic scene closes a chapter of its illustrious history, leaving a deep sorrow in the cultural and creative community, amid heartfelt tributes from colleagues who remembered him with sadness and highlighted his prolific contributions and creativity.
