    Annie Wersching dies at age 45 after battling cancer for two years

    Actor Annie Wersching breathed her last in Los Angeles, California, after battling cancer for two years. She was 45. Her husband, director Stephen Full, confirmed the news on the GoFundMe account set up by the family to raise funds for her treatment. Her career spanned over two decades. Condolences and messages by many biggies poured in on social media following her tragic passing.

    Director Full's statement to CNN

    Full gave a statement to CNN. He said, "There is a cavernous hole in the soul of this family today. But she left us the tools to fill it. She found wonder in the simplest moment. She didn't require music to dance. She taught us not to wait for the adventure to find you. 'Go find it. It's everywhere.' And find it we shall."

    She was diagnosed with cancer in 2020

    Wersching is survived by her husband and their three sons—Ozzie, Freddie and Archie. She was diagnosed with cancer back in 2020, but the specifics (type and stage) were not revealed. Even after her diagnosis, the actor continued to work. Her last work was Star Trek: Picard in 2022. Her GoFundMe said Wersching was a private person who didn't want to discuss her diagnosis.

    Colleagues' react to her death

    Abigail Spencer, her Timeless co-star, took to Instagram and called Wersching the backbone of many American TV shows. "When you needed someone to come in and kick ass or elevate a storyline or your lifeline: call Annie," she wrote. Neil Druckmann also tweeted about his dear friend's demise and shared the GoFundMe link for her family.

    Twitter Post
