Charlbi Dean, the South African actor and model currently starring in festival circuit hit Triangle of Sadness, died on Monday at a New York City hospital of a sudden illness at the age of 32, Variety confirmed on Tuesday.
The up-and-coming actor had a co-starring role in Triangle of Sadness, which was awarded the Palme d’Or at the Cannes film festival this past May. The satirical dark comedy written and directed by Swedish film-maker Ruben Östlund, whose credits include Force Majeure and The Square, stars Woody Harrelson and Harris Dickinson and is due in US and UK theaters in October.
