'Tehran' Producer Dana Eden Found Dead at 52, Statement Clarifies This Wasn't Politically Motivated
Israeli producer Dana Eden, who co-created the Apple TV show Tehran, has died at the age of 52.
She was found deceased in her hotel room in Greece during filming for season four of the show.
Her production company, Donna and Shula Productions, quickly shut down reports that this may have been politically motivated, saying in a statement (via the New York Times), “Rumors about criminal death or about a national background are not true and are not grounded. We call on the media and the public to refrain from publishing unverified assumptions, and to behave responsibly and sensibly.”

While no cause of death has been reported at this time, Reuters is reporting that police are treating her death as a suicide at this time.
The series follows Tamar (Niv Sultan), a Mossad hacker-agent who infiltrates Tehran under a false identity. After going rogue at the end of season two and reeling from the loss of her closest allies, in season three, Tamar must find a way to reinvent herself and win back the Mossad’s support if she is to survive.
Season three just debuted in January.
