Jessica stayed warm outside wrapped up in a puffy black jacket and gray pants.

The American Horror Story veteran matched the pants with her gray gloves, and finished her look with some brown sunglasses.

Meanwhile, Susan looked like a league of her own.

The 77-year-old kept pace in a black leather motorcycle jacket adorned with a flower pattern.

She paired it with simple blue jeans and burgundy shoes.

The Thelma and Louise star stayed warm with a colorful scarf wrapped around her neck, and a black newsboy type hat.

A spokesperson for Jessica downplayed the wheelchair wonder in a statement to Page Six.

“Jessica is healthy and well,” the source shared. “She is recovering from a leg injury she incurred at a dog park.”

FRIENDS FOREVER

Jessica and Susan co-starred in the 2017 Ryan Murphy miniseries Feud.

The two actresses played Joan Crawford and Bette Davis, respectively.

The docudrama chronicled the famous 60’s actresses and their famous feud surrounding the filming of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

Although both are veterans of the screen, it was only the first time the two had worked together.

Jessica had previously won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role in Tootsie.

Susan nabbed the Best Actress Oscar for her part in Dead Man Walking.

WALKING AWAY

Although both are well respected actors, Jessica shared that she’s had enough of the current Hollywood landscape, and is considering retirement.

The star slammed today’s movies based on pop culture franchises in an interview with The Telegraph

“Creativity is secondary now to corporate profits,” She said. “The emphasis becomes not on the art or the artist or the storytelling. It becomes about satisfying your stockholders. It diminishes the artist and the art of filmmaking.”

Jessica singled out comic book movies, which she stressed she had no interest in.

Her Hollywood vitriol also included ageism and quick-paced editing, which she refereed to as “frantic.”

“I don’t know if it’s because the filmmakers think that they can’t hold the attention of the audience anymore,” she said. “That kind of filmmaking drives me crazy.”
