A singer and actress who appeared this year as blues singer Big Mama Thornton in the film “Elvis” was found dead in her Nashville apartment on Thursday, police said.

The body of Shonka Dukureh, 44, was found after one of her two young children found the actress unresponsive and ran to get a neighbor, who called 9-1-1, the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department said in a written statement.

The reason of her death would be determined by an autopsy, according to the police, who stated there was no suspicion of foul play.

According to a tweet from Nashville Mayor John Cooper, Dukureh graduated from Fisk University in the city that she had lived in for a long time. He also expressed his condolences to her family.

In the 2022 movie, Dukureh co-starred with Tom Hanks as Colonel Tom Parker and Austin Butler as Elvis Presley.

Dukureh, who was born in North Carolina, received his first significant film role in “Elvis,” according to Variety.
