Bridget Fonda, 58, looks UNRECOGNIZABLE as shy movie star is seen out for the first time in 12 years

Bridget Fonda, who retired from acting in 2002 after appearing in a number of critically-acclaimed films like Quentin Tarantino’s Jackie Brown, looked unrecognizable as she stepped out in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

The former Hollywood siren, 58, was captured carting her and husband Danny Elfman’s 17-year-old son Oliver around the city in her silver luxury Land Rover.

Fonda was last photographed publicly in 2009 while attending the premiere of Tarantino’s World War II epic Inglorious Basterds, which was held at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.

For Wednesday’s errand run, Bridget’s once golden blonde hair was styled into a low ponytail that was secured in place with a scrunchie.

She wore a pair of black framed seeing glasses on her seemingly makeup-free face.

Besides a few gold earrings in her ears, Bridget was completely devoid of accessories.

In another dramatic departure from her once ultra glamorous image, the daughter of Peter Fonda braved the day in a comfy black-and-white striped top and a pair of black sweatpants.
