Rarely seen star Bridget Fonda, 59, reveals she's quit Hollywood career for good and will never return to acting | The Sun

FORMER Hollywood siren Bridget Fonda has revealed she has quit the movies for good and will never return to acting.

The 59-year-old actress, famed for roles in Jackie Brown and Single White Female, said she has surrendered to her "civilian" life.



When asked by paparazzi whether she'd reprise her career in Hollywood, the 90s starlet said: "No."

Asked if there was any possibility of her returning to the screen, she replied "no" again and explained: "I don't think so.

"It's too nice being a civilian."

Bridget has opted for a quieter existence with her husband Danny Elfman and their son Oliver since her last acting role in 2002 and she has since settled into life as a stay-at-home mum.
