Meg Ryan made a rare public appearance in New York City on Thursday to support her longtime friend and fellow actor, Michael J. Fox. The two stars were photographed posing together at a special screening of Fox’s new documentary, “Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie,” at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall.
Ryan, 61, looked chic in a black coat and red sweater, while Fox, 61, sported a casual look of jeans and a T-shirt. The two actors have been friends for decades, and Ryan has been a vocal supporter of Fox’s work with the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research.
“Still” is a personal documentary that follows Fox as he reflects on his life with Parkinson’s disease. The film features interviews with Fox’s family, friends, and colleagues, as well as archival footage from his career. Fox has been open about his diagnosis since 1998, and he has used his platform to raise awareness and funding for Parkinson’s research.
The documentary has received positive reviews from critics, with many praising Fox’s honesty and courage. “Still” is a moving and inspiring film that offers a glimpse into the life of one of Hollywood’s most beloved stars.
Ryan’s appearance at the screening is a rare public sighting for the actress. She has largely stayed out of the spotlight in recent years, and she has only made a handful of appearances in films and television since 2015. However, she has continued to work behind the camera, directing and producing several films.
Ryan’s support for Fox is just one example of her longtime commitment to charitable causes. She is also a supporter of the American Red Cross, the World Wildlife Fund, and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF).
Ryan is a talented actress and a generous philanthropist. Her appearance at the screening of “Still” is a reminder of her commitment to using her platform to make a difference in the world.
