NEW YORK (AP) – Charlbi Dean, the South African actor and model who starred in “Triangle of Sadness,” which won this year’s top prize at the Cannes Film Festival, has died at age 32.
Dean died Monday in a New York hospital of a sudden, unexpected illness, her representatives said Tuesday.
Dean also had a recurring role as the assassin Syonide on the DC Comics television series Black Lightning, which aired on the CW from 2018 to 2021.
She was born Charlbi Dean Kriek in Cape Town, where she grew up.
Dean began modeling as a child, making frequent appearances on runways and magazine covers in the decades that followed.
He survived a near-fatal car accident in 2009.
She made her acting debut in the 2010 film Spud, an adaptation of a popular South African novel about a boys’ boarding school starring Troye Sivan and John Cleese. She reprized her role in a 2013 sequel.
In “Triangle of Sadness,” the first English-language film from Swedish “Force Majeure” director Ruben Östlund, Dean and Harris Dickinson play a couple of famous fashion models on a cruise for the ultra-rich who descend into chaos. It also stars Woody Harrelson as the ship’s captain.
The film won the Palme d’Or at Cannes in May and opens in the US and most of Europe in October.
At the festival before the film won the award, Dean told The Associated Press, “To me, I’m like I’ve already won. I’m already in Cannes with the film. It’s so incredible. Nothing is just a cherry on top at this point for me, you know?’
