A 60-year-old actress who had a bit part on “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” was fatally struck by a Cadillac driver in Midtown this week, cops and sources said.
Wendy Davis — who uses the stage name Wenne Alton Davis — was crossing Broadway near the West 53rd Street intersection minutes before 9 p.m. Monday when the motorist struck her while making a left turn, authorities and sources said.
Davis, of Forest Hills, Queens, suffered severe head and body trauma and was rushed to Mount Sinai West Hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries, cops said.
The driver of the black 2023 Cadillac XT6, a 61-year-old man, stayed at the scene and did not face any charges by Wednesday, police said.
Davis played a cop in Amazon Prime’s “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” and her IMDB includes nine other credits including parts in the 2011 Michael Fassbender drama “Shame” and the 2004 short film “Ladies Room.”
Neighbor Edward Reynoso, 61, told The Daily News he’d shared a heartfelt moment with Davis hours before she was killed.
“I love you, I appreciate you,” Davis had told Reynoso, he said.
“It was so weird to me, because I felt like she was saying goodbye,” the grief-stricken neighbor recalled. “Now that this happened, it all seems so odd to me.”
