Anne Heche had been revealed in the 1990s by the television series “Another World“. She then launched into the cinema, reaping praise from critics thanks to her role in “Donnie Brasco“, alongside Johnny Depp. She had also starred in “Remember ? last summer” (I Know What You Did Last Summer) ou encore “6 days, 7 nights” (Six Days Seven Nights).
Her relationship with presenter Ellen DeGeneres in the late 90s had attracted media attention and placed the actress “blacklisted“, according to Anne Heche.”For ten years, I no longer shot a big production“, she said in an interview last year.
