On Thursday, the news arrived that actress Shelley Duvall had passed away. Now she is being hailed in social media, reports BBC.

Duvall was primarily known for her role as Wendy in Stanley Kubrick's horror classic "The Shining" from 1980, which was based on Stephen King's book.

"Very sad about Shelley Duvall's passing. Fantastic, talented and underutilized actress", writes an author on X.

Actors such as Mia Farrow, Riley Keough and Malcolm McDowell have all expressed their tributes in social media. Director Edgar Wright writes:

"Rest in peace to the iconic Shelley Duvall, who lit up the screen in many fun, intense and eccentric roles."

Duvall passed away in her sleep at her home in Blanco, Texas, due to diabetes-related complications. She was 75 years old.
