On red carpet for new film, Michael Douglas reflects on death of 92-year-old mother
NEW YORK, N.Y. – Michael Douglas took a moment to reflect on the memory of his mother, Diana, who died earlier this month at age 92 after a bout with cancer.
“My mother had an incredible sense of dignity and was a class act,” Douglas told The Associated Press on Monday night at a special screening for his latest film, “Ant-Man.”
Douglas went on to call her a “lady.”
“I’ve let her down a couple of times in my life, but she certainly was a strong influence,” he said.
The actress was married to Kirk Douglas, but they divorced in 1951. Kirk Douglas will turn 99 in December.
“Ant-Man” is based on the Marvel comic of the same name. It stars comic actor Paul Rudd in the title role.
