Godzilla vs Kong actress Kaylee Hottle dies at 18
Kaylee Hottle, the deaf actress who starred in the Godzilla vs Kong 2021 movie, died in a car crash, her family announced on Tuesday.
She was 18.
Joshua Hottle, the actress’ father, used sign language to announce his daughter’s passing in a Facebook video.
Kaylee played the role of Jia in the hit movie and acted the same character in a 2024 sequel to the Godzilla movie.
Police officers in Frederick, Maryland, attributed the accident to “excessive speed” as Kaylee’s vehicle was the only car involved in the crash.
Her alma mater, Texas School for the Deaf, released a condolence message to commiserate with her family and friends.
“Our hearts are with Kaylee’s family, friends, classmates, and everyone who knew and loved her during this incredibly difficult time,” the school wrote in a statement on Instagram.
