RIP Ágata Lys

 

Spanish actress and singer Agata Lys died in Marbella, Andalusia, Spain on November 12, 2021. She was 68. It was just reported on December 23. A prominent figure in the cinema of the 1970s and 1980s, she was one of the great faces and bodies of the period, although she knew how to leave that stage behind and, when she had the opportunity, she showed that she was also a good actress. The death of the singer, who has just been made public, it occurred although they have not disclosed the cause of his death. This has been confirmed by the Union of Actors and Actresses through its Twitter account. Margarita García Sansegundo, was born on December 3, 1953 in Valladolid, Castilla y Leon, Spain. She jumped from the small screen to the big screen after her appearance in the popular television program '1, 2, 3', by Chicho Ibáñez Serrador, in 1972. It was there that the platinum blonde image was forged in which her brain was much less important than the rest of the body, a circumstance that she knew how to use throughout her career, without ever denying the roles that made her famous. For in Spain of the time, it was like having their own Marilyn Monroe. Lys came to star in 'La nueva Marilyn', in 1976, under the direction of José Antonio de la Loma. Lys appeared in four Euro-westerns: “In the Name of the Father, the Son and the Colt” (1971) as Antonieta ‘Toni’ Pickford, “Tequila” (1972) as Senora Ingrid Dekovan/Di Koven/Cogan). “Three Supermen of the West” (1973) as Yolanda /Agata) and “Valley of the Dancing Widows” (1974) as Maria.
