Anton Yelchin's parents thank fans in touching full-page ad

Anton Yelchin's parents have taken to the trades to express their gratitude for the support and condolences their late son's fans have shown since his passing.

Yelchin, whose "Star Trek Beyond" will be released in theaters this Friday, died in June in freak car accident. And now, a month later, his parents Viktor and Irina Yelchin are saying thank you to his fans via a full-page ad in the Hollywood Reporter.

"Thank you to all of you who have sent flowers and gifts, for your condolences and kind words and to all who came to celebrate the life of our dear son, Anton," the ad read. "We are deeply grateful for your unconditional love for [him]. He would be surprised at how many hearts and souls he touched. Thank you very much."
