Catherine O'Hara had an eerie premonition about her sudden death.

During a March 2025 interview, the actress hinted at her eventual demise as she sat down with her Schitt's Creek costars Seth Rogen and Kathryn Hahn.

The interviewer asked, "As actors, do you feel like you have more of a say, at least, if not power?" to which O'Hara replied, "I've been treated that way lately. Am I dying or something?"

The TV star was clearly teasing, and Rogen played into the joke."This is how we wanted to tell you. This man's actually a doctor," he quipped and pointed at the interviewer. "This is a fake interview.""All set up," Hahn agreed.

The Los Angeles Times captioned the video, "Catherine O'Hara confronted her own mortality in the L.A. Times studio."

I can see my posture is just [droops her body]," she explained. "I didn't test because we were trying to finish shooting, and we were leaving town in a day or two, so we had to shoot all those scenes.""I just kept my distance," O'Hara added.

Thank God I didn't give it to anyone."
