Jean-Marc Vallée—Director Of Big Little Lies, Dallas Buyers Club—Dead At 58
No cause of death has been reported as of post time. Vallée was brilliant and extremely accomplished, having directed both Big Little Lies and Sharp Objects on HBO, as well as Dallas Buyers Club, for which he received an Oscar nomination. Via Deadline:
Jean-Marc Vallée has died suddenly at age 58. The Canadian writer, director, editor and producer won Emmy Awards and a DGA Award for Big Little Lies, and was Oscar nominated for directing Dallas Buyers Club, the film that won Oscars for both Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto. I am still gathering details, but can divulge that he passed away at his cabin outside Quebec City, and that his family and close advisors are in shock.
