Jessica Biel is 'Forever Grateful' for Working with Late Peter Fonda on First Movie 'Ulee's Gold'

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❤️”
