The Hollywood Reporter is highlighting some of the most well-known names who died in 2023, including Lance Reddick, Annie Wersching, Cindy Williams, Jerry Springer, Lisa Loring and more.

Loring, who starred as Wednesday Addams in the classic TV adaptation of The Addams Family, died in January at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Burbank of complications from a stroke caused by high blood pressure, her daughter told THR. She was 64.
In March, The Wire and John Wick star died “suddenly … from natural causes,” his publicist Mia Hansen told THR at the time. He was 60. Reddick’s body was discovered in his Studio City home, TMZ reported.
