Ray Liotta's Death Unexpected: Actor Looked Healthy Weeks Before Passing

Ray Liotta's last public outing broke his fans even more.

Liotta's publicist, Jennifer Allen, shared shocking news about Liotta's sudden death in the Dominican Republic while working on the film "Dangerous Waters." She added that the actor died in his sleep, and his exact cause of death remains unknown.

While it sparked concerns about his health and potential underlying issues, the 67-year-old star was still able to show how happy and healthy he was during a public outing with his 46-year-old fiancée, Jacy Nittolo.

On May 1, the couple was seen walking in Pacific Palisades, California, after having a meal at an Italian restaurant in the area.

He also shared his final social media post two days later, talking about his upcoming project "Cocaine Bear." The Elizabeth Banks-directed film is scheduled for a February 2023 release, and it serves as one of his upcoming projects.

"Cocaine Bear follows an oddball group of cops, criminals, tourists and teens converging in a Georgia forest where a 500-pound apex predator has ingested a staggering amount of the white powder and goes on a coke-fueled rampage seeking more blow - and blood," he said in the post, per The Hollywood Reporter.
