Jane Fonda has touched down in Sydney ahead of a special one-night show – and the 87-year-old icon says she’s never felt better.

The two-time Oscar awardee and former fitness guru was seen at Sydney Airport on Friday, showcasing a stylish look as she was escorted through the terminal in anticipation of her eagerly awaited solo event, titled In Conversation with Jane Fonda.

Sporting oversized sunglasses, a chic navy coat, a face mask, and sneakers, the Hollywood icon appeared every inch a global star as she sat in a wheelchair.

The Grace and Frankie star kept her look polished and understated, accessorising with a patterned scarf.

She completed her look with a designer tan leather handbag perched on her lap.

Jane is set to take the stage at the ICC Sydney Theatre on Sunday, where she will join Liz Hayes for an intimate discussion about her life, legacy and views on ageing with grace and purpose.

‘I’m deeply honoured and excited to be coming to Australia to join Wanderlust True North for these special events,’ Jane said in a statement. 

‘As I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to see ageing as a gift – a time to embrace life fully, share our knowledge… laugh a little more. 

‘Australia has always embraced me over the decades, and I can’t wait to come back and meet everyone. I am very much looking forward to it and excited to share many secrets with my Aussie fans.’

Despite using a wheelchair upon arrival, Fonda shows no signs of slowing down, mentally or physically. 

She recently stunned fans by revealing she feels healthier and more vibrant now than she did in her 20s.

‘I’m 87, and I feel younger and healthier and a greater sense of well-being than I had in my 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s,’ she told The Daily Telegraph. 

‘People have so many stereotypes of older people. I don’t feel done yet.’

Refusing to settle for what she calls ‘sad roles’ written for older women, Fonda remains choosy with her acting work – and unapologetically proud of her legacy.

‘Roles that I’m offered are really sad. They are not worthy of my six decades in this industry,’ she said.

‘But I’m happy… I think one of the greatest things that we can attain is a robust sense of well-being, of happiness.’

Fonda, who famously launched a home workout revolution in the 1980s with her record-breaking exercise videos, says she still trains daily – albeit at a slower pace.

The Hollywood icon, who rose to fame in classics like Barbarella, Klute and 9 to 5, has continued to evolve across generations – from silver screen siren to activist, entrepreneur and environmental crusader.

Jane was born in New York in 1937 to legendary Hollywood star Henry Fonda and she is the sister of late actor Peter Fonda and aunt of retired actress Bridget Fonda.
