Canadian actress Samantha Weinstein—known for her many roles including appearing in the 2013 remake of Carrie—has died at the age of 28 after a two-and-a-half-year battle with ovarian cancer.
Weinstein began acting at six years old, going on to appear in a number of films including Big Girl, The Stone Age and Toronto Stories. She also played the role of Heather in 2013's Carrie, co-starring alongside Chloë Grace Moretz and Julianne Moore.
In July 2022, the Siblings actress opened up about being diagnosed with cancer at 25 after noticing she was "strangely bloated," noting the health battle "happened almost overnight."
Weinstein went on to explain that after spending four days in the hospital recovering from surgery, she returned home, during which she dealt with intense chronic pain.
