Oscar winner Jane Fonda has gushed about meeting football legend Tom Brady on the set of road trip comedy 80 for Brady. “I actually got weak in the knees when he entered my trailer,” the 85-year-old told The Hollywood Reporter at the premiere in Palms Springs, California. If someone is the best in the world at what they do, you have to honor and respect that. “I was just in awe,” Fonda continued.

80 for Brady is slated to hit theaters in February. The comedy is inspired by a true story: Four best friends traveled to the Super Bowl in 2017 to see star quarterback Tom Brady. In addition to Oscar winner Jane Fonda (“Klute”, “Coming Home”), Lily Tomlin, Rita Moreno, Sally Field (all between 76 and 91 years old) also play – and the American football superstar is of course also in the strip see.
