MOVIE NEWS – Bridget Fonda walked away from Hollywood years ago, but whenever she makes a rare public appearance, cameras still seem to find her. The 62-year-old Jackie Brown star was photographed heading to lunch with friends in Los Angeles, once again drawing attention after a dramatic change in her appearance over the past year.

Fonda stepped out in Los Angeles on Tuesday wearing a white top beneath a long-sleeved blue button-down shirt, flowing black pants and sneakers. The retired actress carried a black crochet bag and a shopping bag while heading to lunch with friends, with her silver hair pulled into a high ponytail. According to the Daily Mail, Fonda has reportedly lost around 100 pounds over the course of roughly a year, although the outlet does not provide details about how or why she lost the weight.

The new photos attracted particular attention because Fonda has largely disappeared from public life since retiring from acting. She has stayed away from movie roles for years, meaning even an ordinary lunch outing can become a small Hollywood event once photographers recognize her. In the latest pictures, she appears in glasses and casual clothes, looking far removed from the red-carpet world that once formed a regular part of her career.

This is not the first time she has been photographed recently. Fonda was also spotted in Los Angeles in August, when her noticeably slimmer figure attracted similar attention. The new sighting therefore reinforces just how dramatically her appearance has changed over the past year rather than being the result of one unusual photograph or camera angle.

There is still no indication that Fonda is preparing a Hollywood comeback. The former Jackie Brown star appears perfectly content living a private life, and these latest photographs simply caught her on her way to a meal with friends. Hollywood being Hollywood, though, you can retire from the movies, but if your name is Bridget Fonda, even walking to lunch can still become entertainment news.
