<p>Academy Award-winning actress Diane Keaton has passed away at the age of 79.</p>
<p>A cause of death was not immediately made known, and her family have asked the public for privacy, according to <a href="https://people.com/diane-keaton-dead-oscar-winning-actress-dies-at-79-exclusive-8603118">People</a>.</p>
<p>Keaton had a long career on film and television &#8212; though her earliest roles were on stage. In 1968, she was cast as an understudy in the Broadway musical “Hair,” and after that, was cast in Woody Allen’s “Play It Again, Sam” in 1969.</p>
<p>It was the 1970s when Keaton began her rise to stardom with roles in “The Godfather” and “Annie Hall,” another collaboration with Woody Allen, for which she won the Academy Award for Best Actress.</p>
<p>Of working on &#8220;The Godfather,&#8221; Keaton told <a href="https://people.com/movies/diane-keaton-never-read-the-godfather-before-auditioning-exclusive/">People</a>: &#8220;I think the kindest thing that someone&#8217;s ever done for me &#8230; is that I got cast to be in <em>The Godfather</em> and I didn&#8217;t even read it. I didn&#8217;t know a single thing. &#8230; I just was going around auditioning. I think that was amazing for me. And then I had to kind of read the book.&#8221;</p>

<p>Keaton’s famous filmography included roles in “Crimes of the Heart,” “Father of the Bride,” “The First Wives Club,” and “Something’s Gotta Give,” among many others. She also worked in television, with roles in “Mannix,” and more recently “The Young Pope,” and “Amelia Earhart: The Final Flight,” for which she was nominated for an Emmy Award.</p>
<p>Keaton also starred in Justin Bieber&#8217;s music video for &#8220;Ghost,&#8221; which was the only music video she ever participated in.</p>
<p>Though Keaton never married, she leaves behind her adopted children Dexter and Duke.</p>
