The Oscar winner, 84, took to social media on Sunday, October 23, to share a big update for fans of Grace and Frankie, which released its final episodes in April.

Jane and Lily, 83, got together as their characters from the Netflix show for a Facetime call that began with the Monster-in-Law actress, who played Grace, announcing, "I think we're on mute." The comedian, who portrayed Frankie, replied, "How can I put just you on mute?"

"Your video is off," Lily countered. "I look really good." As Jane fixed the problem, her 9 to 5 costar asked if there was anything in her teeth. "Your entire breakfast, Frankie," Jane replied.
Then the environmental activist shared their news. "We're very worried about climate change," she said. "And we're going to do something about it." She and Lily are holding a virtual fundraiser to support "climate champions" running for office around the U.S.
They and some members of the Grace and Frankie cast are getting together along with a few special guests for a live reunion table read on Friday, October 28 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.

She followed it up in March this year by founding her PAC (political action committee).
She has continued to actively campaign for this cause while being treated for non-Hodgkins lymphoma. Jane revealed in September that she'd been diagnosed with the "very treatable cancer" and had started chemotherapy treatments.
The acting legend assured fans in a new blog post earlier this month that "my lymphoma is not going to stop me."
