Oscar-winning actress Diane Keaton died at the age of 79 on October 11, 2025 in California.
“There are no further details available at this time, and her family has asked for privacy in this moment of great sadness,” a Keaton spokesperson informed People.
Keaton was born as Diane Hall on January 5, 1946 in Los Angeles. She rocketed to screen stardom in the 1970s when she played Kay Adams, the wife of gangster Michael Corleone, in Francis Ford Coppola’s The Godfather and The Godfather Part II.
But it was Keaton’s string of Woody Allen films that cemented her screen legend: Sleeper, Love and Death, Interiors, Manhattan, Manhattan Murder Mystery, and 1977’s Annie Hall, which won her the Academy Award as Best Actress. Keaton’s eccentric vintage men’s clothing style in Annie Hall made Keaton a fashion icon of the 1970s.
In the 1980s, Keaton appeared in Reds, The Little Drummer Girl, Mrs. Soffel, Crimes of the Heart, and The Good Mother.
