Jessica Biel is remembering the late Peter Fonda.

After news of his death broke on Friday, August 18, the 37-year-old actress took to Instagram to remember working with Peter on her first movie Ulee’s Gold.

“I had the honor of working with #PeterFonda on the first movie I ever made (as an angsty teenager with a nose ring),” Jessica wrote along with a photo from the 1997 film.

Peter died after suffering from respiratory failure due to lung cancer. His sister Jane Fonda recently paid tribute Peter in a sweet post.

Jessica continued: “Ulee’s Gold was a huge opportunity and he believed in me. I’m forever grateful for him and the impact he had on me and my career. I’m sure countless others can say the same. Rest in paradise❤️”

Peter Fonda is apologizing for a tweet about Barron Trump.

The 78-year-old actor tweeted, then deleted, a tweet suggesting that President Donald Trump‘s youngest son should be put “in a cage” according to federal authorities.

The tweet was issued seemingly out of anger given the ongoing separation of children from parents at the U.S.-Mexico border as part of the administration’s “zero tolerance” policy.

“WE SHOULD RIP BARRON TRUMP FROM HIS MOTHER’S ARMS AND PUT HIM IN A CAGE WITH PEDOPHILES AND SEE IF MOTHER WILL WILL STAND UP AGAINST THE GIANT A–HOLE SHE IS MARRIED TO. 90 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE STREETS ON THE SAME WEEKEND IN THE COUNTRY. F–K,” he reportedly wrote.

He later issued an apology after the Secret Service was reportedly made aware of the tweet.

“I tweeted something highly inappropriate and vulgar about the president and his family in response to the devastating images I was seeing on television. Like many Americans, I am very impassioned and distraught over the situation with children separated from their families at the border, but I went way too far. It was wrong and I should not have done it. I immediately regretted it and sincerely apologize to the family for what I said and any hurt my words have caused.”

Vera Farmiga happily poses alongside her handsome husband Renn Hawkey while arriving at the premiere of her latest film Boundaries held at the American Cinematheque’s Egyptian Theatre on Tuesday (June 19) in Los Angeles.

The 44-year-old actress was also joined at the event by her co-stars Kristen Schaal and her hubby Rich Blomquist, Peter Fonda, Lewis MacDougall and the film’s writer-director Shana Feste.

Synopsis: The more Laura (Farmiga) tries to set boundaries in her life, the faster those lines are crossed. Her 12-year-old son Henry (MacDougall) is in trouble again at school. Her own penchant for adopting stray dogs and cats threatens to overwhelm their Seattle home. And her phone keeps ringing with calls she refuses to pick up—from her estranged father Jack (Christopher Plummer). Maybe Jack will stick around. For Laura, the chance to accept, forgive, and heal will never go away.

Boundaries is set to hit select theaters on Friday (June 22) – Watch trailer below!
