A British actress who appeared in the box office hit Spider-Man 3 was found dead in her Paris apartment early Thursday after an apparent suicide.

The 28-year-old actress, who appeared as British reporter Jennifer Dugan in the blockbuster film, was found hanging from the ceiling of her home near the River Seine.

“It was a horrific scene. The young woman had taken her own life in terrible circumstances. We are not seeking anyone else. It was a clear case of suicide,” an official with police headquarters in Paris remarked.

An autopsy has been ordered to determine the official cause of death.

Lucy appeared in a dozen films, including Vie Heroique, a biopic of singer-songwriter Serge Gainsbourg, which is currently previewing at the Cannes Film Festival.

“We are devastated by this news. All those attending the festival had been hugely impressed by Lucy’s work,” said a festival organizer. “She was a star in the making.”

It is always so sad when a person takes their own life. Can you imagine feeling so alone in the world? Rest In Peace, Lucy…..
