The star of an iconic slasher film and a wholesome TV show about a pastor's family was spotted making a rare outing in Los Angeles.

This actress starred in the hit series 7th Heaven, a show about a pastor's family which starred the now disgraced Stephen Collins in the lead role.

It's a far cry from another big hit she is known for - the horror film Child's Play, where she played a mother who unknowingly gifts her son a doll possessed by a serial killer.

She enjoyed critical acclaim as well, receiving an Emmy nod for her portrayal of Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe early in her career.

Her days in front of the camera are long behind her now as she has since quit acting.

Now 74, she was seen running errands with her husband in a fashionable outfit that made her standout -can you guess who this legend is?

The Emmy nominated star of 7th Heaven and Child's Play was spotted making a rare outing in Los Angeles on Monday... can you guess who she is?

'We'd have to open with his coffin': Catherine Hicks says 7th Heaven reboot can only happen if Stephen Collins is killed off after abuse claims

Hicks has enjoyed an illustrious acting career before leaving Hollywood to devote herself to her family.

An Emmy nominated actress, Hick's lengthy resume includes lead roles in Child's Play, Peggy Sue Got Married, She's Out of Control, and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home.

She is perhaps best known to audiences for playing Annie Camden in 7th Heaven, the beloved series about a pastor, his wife, and their seven children.

From 1996 to 2007, she played Stephen Collins' on-screen wife and the doting mother to their many children.

It's a show many would love to see rebooted - however Hicks believes the series could only return without Collins.

In 2014 Collins' career imploded after he admitted to inappropriate conduct with three underage girls years prior.

His past misconduct came to light in October of 2014, when TMZ published an audio from 2012 that saw him speaking abut inappropriately touching a minor in 1973, and exposing himself to two other underage girls in 1982 and 1994.

Hicks said a reboot could only happen if Collins' character was killed off during a 2016 interview with TMZ.

'I don't know. I mean, we'd have to open with Stephen's coffin,' she said.

More recently, Hicks flat out rejected the idea of reviving the series.

Hicks no longer acts, having left Hollywood to devote herself to her daughter.

'I don't act anymore,' she told TMZ. 'I don't have the tears in me. They're gone.
'I'm being a homemaker when I wasn't because I was playing a homemaker. I wasn't there for my real daughter and now I'm home for my real daughter 'cause she never got me then when she was little.
'It's really fulfilling,' she added.
