Robert Duvall’s widow Luciana Pedraza is an accomplished talent in her own right — and according to a source, she’s got Hollywood beating her door down with job offers as she looks to pick up the pieces and rebuild her life in the wake of his death.
The Argentine actress and director, 54, confirmed the news of The Godfather star’s peaceful passing at age 95 in a statement shared to his official Facebook page on Monday, February 16.
“Luciana is a talented and charismatic woman who has devoted a quarter century to looking after Robert, keeping him active and healthy and keeping that spark inside him going,” says the source. “Her second act is about to begin, and preserving her late husband’s legacy is only part of that.”

As Closerpreviously reported, the couple, who met in 1996 in Pedraza’s home country of Argentina, shared a mutual love of dance.
On one of their first dates, the Oscar winner took her out to a tango club, where they kicked and flicked the night away, and it’s a hobby they continued to enjoy together after tying the knot in 2005.
“They were famous as a couple for their love of dance, but Luciana is a lot more than that and she knows everyone in Hollywood because of how long she and Robert were together,” says the source. “Dancing With the Stars or the Real Housewives would be lucky to have her, should she go that route.”
