Wikipedia
In 2004, Wray was approached by director Peter Jackson to appear in a small cameo for the 2005 remake of King Kong.
She met with Naomi Watts, who was to play the role of Ann Darrow.
She politely declined the cameo, and claimed the original " Kong " to be the true " King ".
Before filming of the remake commenced, Wray died in her sleep of natural causes on August 8, 2004, in her Manhattan apartment.
Her friend Rick McKay said that " she just kind of drifted off quietly as if she was going to sleep ... she just kind of gave out.
" She was 96 years old.
Wray was buried at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery in Hollywood, California.
