The reopening of the case regarding the death of Natalie Wood has apparently yielded no new evidence. The actress drowned on Nov. 29, 1981 while boating off Catalina Island with husband Robert Wagner, fellow actor Christopher Walken and the boat captain, Dennis Davern.
LA County Sheriff's chief of detectives William McSweeney told the Los Angeles Times that several weeks of interviews have uncovered no evidence to support Woods' drowning was anything other than a tragic accident.

The case of Wood's death was reopened in November 2011 on reports that boat captain Davern had new information to share. After a week or so of rampant press speculation, Walken sought legal advice even though he had never been implicated in Woods' death.
