Remembering legendary Canadian actress and comedienne Catherine O'Hara who has passed away following a brief illness at the age of 71.
Born on March 4th, 1954 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Died on January 30th, 2026 in Los Angeles, California
After starting her career in her native Canada and finding success on the television series SCTV, O'Hara went on to memorable roles in the films Home Alone, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Best in Show and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. In recent years, her role as Moira Rose on the Canadian television series Schitt$ Creek was a massive hit with audiences around the world earning Catherine an Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series Emmy Award in 2020 (her second Emmy, her first for writing on SCTV in 1982). She received acclaim for her role as former studio head Patty Leigh in the AppleTV/Seth Rogan satirical television series The Studio in 2025, receiving both Emmy and Golden Globe Best Supporting Actress nominations for her performance, also making a dramatic turn in 2025 opposite Pedro Pascal in the HBO series The Last of Us. "I think everyone is born funny," O'Hara once stated. "Sadly, some lives beat it out of them. I don't know what allows someone to keep being funny and actually make a career of it. I was encouraged to see the humor in life and have always been around people who think funny, but I know some hilarious people whose sense of humor saved them from their lives."
May she rest in peace.
