As Tom Brady gets ready to figure out what he wants to do for next season, he is being talked about by a legendary actress who was actually starstruck to meet him.
Actress Jane Fonda met legendary NFL quarterback Tom Brady for the first time during his movie “80 For Brady,” and she revealed how her body felt at that moment seeing the hall of fame quarterback.
“My knees actually got weak when he walked into my trailer,” Fonda said, via the New York Post. “I’m in awe of that kind of skill. When somebody is the best in the world at what they do, you have to honor that and respect it. I was just awestruck.”
Brady would come Fonda’s dressing room to introduce himself when he was on set for the film.
“He was kind and humble, which is hard to believe considering how brilliant he is at what he does, but it’s true. He was also sweet and polite,” recalled the 85-year-old screen legend.
“80 for Brady” also stars Billy Porter, Guy Fieri, and even Patriots tight-end Ron Gronkowski.
During the final week of the season, Brady finished Week 18 going 13 of 17 for 84 yards and a TD, which means he’ll finish the season with an NFL record 490 completions and 736 pass attempts.
The team’s season ended on Monday after they lost to the Dallas Cowboys at home.
