If you are intrigued by Hollywood legends and television shows like Cold Case, then here is a story that will interest you. After three decades, police are reopening the investigation into the drowning death of beloved actress Natalie Wood. TMZ is reporting that new interest in the case was sparked by the account given in a new book entitled, Goodbye Natalie, Goodbye Splendour.
At the time of her death, Wood was married to actor Robert Wagner (The Pink Panther, Austin Powers, Hart To Hart), and the two of them were on their boat with their friend, actor Christopher Walken, when she fell into the ocean under mysterious circumstances.
When we talked to Wagner a few years ago while promoting the release of his biography, Pieces of My Heart, Wagner told us that he was advised by a close family friend not to talk about the circumstances of Wood’s death publicly. (Click on the audio player to hear Robert Wagner)

The LAPD has called a press conference for Friday at 11 am PT to discuss the reopening of the case.
