She had just finished filming (I think they finished) a pilot for Hulu. Very sad news, far too young.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

Such sad news. She had great talent, and should have been a big star after Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, one of my favorite comedic film performances. Apparently the cause was a pulmonary embolism.

I feel bad saying this now that she's passed, and because I enjoyed her in so many other plays and films, but she gave a very odd performance in Fish in the Dark. Not that the role called for much depth, but it seemed like she was in an entirely different play.
However, she was absolutely captivating in Beth Henley's The Jacksonian Off Broadway a few years ago, and on HBO's The Night Of last year. Such a sad and sudden loss.

Omg! I have always thought that too! She was so good, (and star Demi Moore so bad) in that movie, with a very subtly nuanced performance that made her character ,who started out as just a normal person, end up a scary monster. I wish she had been nominated for something for that role!
