WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. -- Domino Harvey, a model-turned-bounty hunter who's being played by Keira Knightley in the upcoming action movie "Domino," has died.
New Line Cinema Image Actress Keira Knightley plays Domino Harvey in the upcoming film "Domino."
She was 35.
The British-born Harvey was pronounced dead at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. She was taken to the hospital after being found in her West Hollywood home.
British news reports say Harvey was found unconscious in her bathtub.
Local police, however, say no information about the case will be made public pending completion of the investigation.
An autopsy is scheduled for Wednesday afternoon. But a coroner's spokeswoman said the cause of death likely will not be released until results of blood tests are returned.
Harvey is the daughter of the original "The Manchurian Candidate" star Laurence Harvey.
She gave up a lucrative Ford modeling career and socialite life to become a bounty hunter.
That's the first clue that she's probably not playing with a full deck.
You betcha. A few fries short of a happy meal.
Probably revenge killing.
She was actually out on bail and awaiting trial herself for drug trafficking and possession charges. Suicide has been speculated.
The ultimate PR stunt.
Shades of Jim Morrison.
She's "missing a few cartridges in her bandoleer" if she went from being a successful supermodel to become a bounty hunter who apprehends dirtbags at all hours of the night in fleabag motels.

Kiera Knightley... Wow.

Oh I don't know...A bounty hunter apprehends dirtballs. Supermodels probably have to hang out with 'em.
I thought that deserevd a repost! Hubba Hubba!

If that's a supermodel, I'm a giraffe.
I'd love to see what the badges around their necks say from that movie poster. Probably something truly silly like, "Concealed Carry Permit Holder" or something equally inane.

Lesbian bounty hunter Domino Harvey is upset moviemakers made her straight
How bad can it be when Hollywood chooses Keira Knightley, to portray you in a story inspired by your life? Well, model-turned-bounty-hunter Domino Harvey is unamused by the fact that in the movie, all of a sudden she's heterosexual. Harvey, a lesbian, "sees it as an insult that the producers are selling it as her life story, when they are completely overlooking what she regards as a pretty basic part of her life," a source says. "... She thinks it's ironic that so much of the publicity the film has attracted has been based on it's raunchy sex scenes."
