Jane Fonda is not afraid of death, the 75-year-old actress tells Oprah Winfrey in an April 7 interview for the program "Oprah's Next Chapter" on the media mogul's OWN network.

A two-time Oscar winner, Fonda recalled her fearless view of life after death being tested when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010 and forced to undergo a lumpectomy.

"[It] was a good test, because I always said I'm not afraid of dying," Jane said. "And I wasn't. I mean, I felt like 'god, I've just joined a family of millions of women who have gone through this.' And how interesting. What a journey this is going to be.''

Fonda said she was able to remain unafraid of death or any other possible consequences of her diagnosis.

"I just thought, 'you know, maybe I'll make it and maybe I won't,'" Jane said. "I didn't get scared. I hope I don't die. But I'm not scared of dying."

The positivity paid off. Several months later, Fonda's doctor's told the star she was cancer-free.

Fonda's adopted daughter Mary Williams also opened up to Oprah about her personal struggles in the April 7 episode, most notably how she coped with a sexual assault at the age of 14 when she showed up for what she thought was an audition.

"It turned out not to be an audition," Williams said. "I was assaulted. Sexually assaulted."

Jane's daughter told Oprah that she refused to let the terrible incident define who she is.

"I said, 'I'm going to avoid that. I'm not going to be that kind of person," Williams said. "I'm not going to be dominated by a man,'" she says. "But after that rape, I didn't believe in myself anymore. I thought I [had been] foolish to ever think that I could escape that."

In her newly published memoir "The Lost Daughter," Williams, who was adopted at age 14 by Jane Fonda and Ted Turner in the 1980s and moved from East Oakland to posh Santa Monica, Calif., recalls how her adopted parents dealt with the distance that led to their 2001 divorce in different ways.

"While Ted was his usual upbeat self, my mom was greatly diminished physically and emotionally," Williams wrote. "She'd lost a lot of weight from her already tiny frame. Though she continued to put up a front that screamed 'Everything's fine!' I could see things were not. Emotionally, she was shutting down. Her marriage was eating her alive."
