The actress Bridget Fonda made a name for herself in the Hollywood industry in the 90s thanks to her participation in films such as The Godfather III or the iconic Jackie Brown, by Quentin Tarantino. Fonda belongs to one of the most prominent families in the film industry: she is the granddaughter of Henry Fonda, the daughter of Peter Fonda and the niece of Jane Fonda. For a while, her professional career was at the top, but she soon withdrew from the media spotlight, specifically in 2001. Since then, the times that she has reappeared in public are counted.
The actress proved to have great talent during her active years, and managed to overcome prejudice and comparisons with the rest of her family. She made her film debut as a child and at the hands of her father, in the film Easy Rider, released in 1969. However, it was at the age of 21 when she got her first important role. It was the romantic comedy You Can’t Hurry Love. Those were her first steps. Her professional career would end in 2001, and today her life is very different.
Away from filming sets and cameras, Bridget rarely reappears in public. That is why the images that have come to light of her this week have been surprising. The actress, who is currently 59 years old, has been captured on the streets of Los Angeles, and her appearance has caught the attention of the paparazzi. Fonda, who was last seen in September 2022, was walking around wearing an oversized white jumper, a pair of black pants, and navy blue sneakers.
The actress, who also starred in the film Scandal, reappeared with gray hair in a ponytail, and wore black-rimmed glasses, and went without makeup. A very different aspect from the one she had the last time she posed for the cameras. The images have been shared by the Daily Mail medium and there are many users who have defended the actress. “People get older,” expressed one user. “That she was unrecognizable was probably the goal,” expressed another.
Bridget Fonda decided to end her acting career for a compelling reason. The actress wanted to focus on starting a family with her husband, composer Danny Elfman, who is currently 68 years old. Elfman has two daughters, Lola and Mali, from his previous marriage to Geri Eisenmenger. After a few years, the couple welcomed their only child together, Oliver, who was born in 2005. The family is enjoying their retirement from the media spotlight on a ranch in California.
