Alberta Watson, who played Madeline in the Canadian series "La Femme Nikita" and Sen. Madeline Pierce on the CW series "Nikita," died Saturday after "a long and heroic battle with cancer," a representative for the actress told TheWrap on Monday. She was 60.
"It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of the luminous Alberta Watson. Alberta died in the arms of her beloved Ken on Saturday March 21st at Kensington Hospice in Toronto after a long and incredibly courageous battle with cancer," Gary Goddard Agency, which represented Watson, said in a statement.
A memorial service is currently being planned. "In the meantime, any messages to Alberta's family can be sent to us and we will pass them along," the agency noted.
A Toronto native, Watson also played CTU director Erin Driscoll on the Fox series "24" during its fourth season. Her film credits included "Spanking the Monkey" and "Hackers."
