Bridget Fonda spotted in public after 24 years away from film
Actress Bridget Fonda, 62, was recently photographed in Los Angeles, marking a rare public appearance after more than two decades away from the film industry. The former Hollywood star, known for her role in “Jackie Brown,” has not appeared in a film since 2002.
Fonda, a member of a prominent acting dynasty including grandfather Henry Fonda and aunt Jane Fonda, has largely stepped away from the spotlight to focus on her family. She has been married to film composer Danny Elfman since 2003. In a 2023 interview, she expressed contentment with her private life, stating, “I don't think so, it's too nice being a civilian,” in reference to a potential return to acting.
Her son, Oliver Elfman, born in 2005, has occasionally appeared in the public eye alongside his father and half-sister, filmmaker Mali Elfman.
