Gena Rowlands, one of the last of Hollywood’s living legends, has died at age 94.
A representative for her son, director Nick Cassavetes, confirmed Rowlands' death to USA TODAY Wednesday. No further details were given.
TMZ was first to report the news. According to TMZ, Rowlands died surrounded by family members at her home in Indian Wells, California.
She is survived by her actor-director children, Nick, Alexandra and Zoe Cassavetes. For decades, Rowlands was married to the late director and independent film pioneer John Cassavetes.
In June, Nick shared with Entertainment Weekly that his mom is suffering from dementia, much like her character in the 2004 drama "The Notebook." Rowland played an older version of Rachel McAdams' character, Allie, in the beloved romance movie, which co-starred Ryan Gosling.
