NEW YORK (AP) — “Gone Girl” actor Lisa Banes has died 10 days after being injured by a hit-and-run driver in New York City.

A police spokesperson says the 65-year-old Banes died Monday at Mount Sinai Morningside Hospital.

She was struck by a scooter or motorcycle while crossing a street on June 4.

Banes appeared in numerous television shows and movies, including “Gone Girl” starring Ben Affleck in 2014 and “Cocktail” with Tom Cruise in 1988.
