Actress Jane Fonda will attend the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner this weekend as CNN’s guest, The Hill reported Tuesday.

Ms. Fonda, who divorced CNN founder Ted Turner in 2001, most recently starred in Aaron Sorkin’s HBO drama “The Newsroom” and is part of several other productions set to release this year.

CNN is also bringing actor Eric Dane, known for his role as Dr. Mark “McSteamy” Sloan on “Grey’s Anatomy,” to the April 25 event, The Hill reported.

Mr. Dane’s wife, actress Rebecca Gayheart, will also reportedly be in attendance as CNN’s guest.

Cecily Strong of “Saturday Night Live” will be this year’s featured entertainment at the dinner.
