I was 9 years old when Peter Sellers made his last movie, Being There.  And I remember when he died.  It was 3 days before they finished filming the movie.  They had to use a body double to film the very last scene, where Chance The Gardner walks on water.  I remember that clearly.  Yet if you go look at Peter Sellers' bio on Wikipedia, it says he lived about 6 months after the movie was finished.   That's not what happened.  Not the way I remember it anyway.

You seem to be mixing up Peter sellers with Brandon Lee in the Crow.
Anyway, some of the things people attribute to the Mandela Effect aren't misremembering, but outright, (or unintentional,) "gaslighting" from the industry.
I remember thinking I was losing my mind because a friend who worked at a video store had given me a cult classic film, 'INVASION!' and when I looked it up a few years later to watch it again it DIDN'T EXIST.
Knowing full well what I saw and NOT being mentally unstable, over the course of the couple years whenever I thought about it, I'd do a deeper search.
FOUR FUCKING YEARS LATER, I found out that they had Changed the name of the movie depending on whether it was in Canada or the US.
Still strange, since it WAS a little known Cult film and you'd think there would at least be several jEWTUB videos on it with the original Name.
The name they changed it to was 'Top of the Food Chain' BTW.
FFS, they even have the original title in the trailer:

Worth a watch, definitely /x/-worthy. 

My point is, you aren't nuts, you may have just conflated 2 things, as there have been several films where the lead or the Director even;
>Eyes Wide Shut? (Kubrick kicked it before the final edit I think?)
>Gladiator Finished Oliver Reed's Scenes Following His Death

>Brainstorm('83)Natalie Wood  drowned during the filming and a body double was used and shot from a distance for her remaining scenes.

I don't think so.  This is not something I vaguely remember.  I remember that story like I heard it yesterday.  And if you watch that scene, they shoot the entire thing from a long distance, so you can't tell it's a body double. 

I'll tell you another one.  I play golf.  I've done it all my life.  Al Gieberger was the first player to shoot a 59 on the PGAtour, at the Danny Thomas in 1976.  It was incredible for two reasons.  At the time it was the toughest PGA event that was not a major.  Over par scores used to win that tournament.  Al Gieberger shot 59, lowest score ever, but lot the tournament by two strokes, because he played so bad the other 3 days.  In the early 2000's I saw a short video clip, I think on the golf channel.  Gieberger was standing on a golf course.  He was wearing a yellow shirt with a pocket on the front.  He was being filmed from the waist up.  He said in that short clip, and this is a direct quote,"I shot 59 and lost the tournament."  He finished 2 strokes behind.  That's the second amazing part of the story.   I knew that just as sure as I knew my own name.  It was a fact everybody who knows anything about golf knew.  

You look it up today, Gieberger won that tournament by 2 strokes.  And that just plain didn't happen.  I watched a video clip of Gieberger himself, saying he lost.  I'm not misremembering anything, I'm not confusing two things.  He lost, period.  Yet not anymore.  I don't expect you to believe it, but I do 100%.  I know he lost, it was common knowledge.  I'll look for that movie though, since you recommended it.
