Sissy Spacek, best known for her iconic roles in movies such as Carrie, Coal Miner’s Daughter, and The Help, was recently spotted attending the 2025 Cannes Film Festival to lend her support for the new film, Die, My Love, directed by Lynne Ramsay where she portrayed the character Pam.
The actress was all smiles as she posed for the cameras on the red carpet rocking a navy-blue, belted jumpsuit, which she paired with a casual black cardigan and black shoes while her partially gray hair flowed freely over one shoulder. Despite her graceful demeanor and carriage during the event, a video clip circulating online has raised concerns among her fans about her health.

In the video, which has garnered lots of views, Spacek was captured walking toward the event in her usual calm and composed manner, flanked by two individuals who appeared to be guiding or supporting her on either side.
As if to cover up, the camera quickly panned on Spacek’s Die My Love co-star, Jennifer Lawrence, who had initially been walking directly behind the 77-year-old. Lawrence, in what appeared to be a seemingly calculated move, stepped forward, breaking away from the group, as she waved to the crowd and photographers.

Despite the swift move and the video’s caption, which only mentioned Lawrence’s presence, fans were quick to notice the movement of the actress, who had previously spoken about how she maintains her youthful glow, leading to several speculations about her well-being. While some concerns centered on the health status of the actress, Spacek’s behavior in the video, most especially her gait and the discomfort she seemed to be experiencing, was the focal point for others.
