What a cool thing to do. Part of why Jamie Lee Curtis is having such an important moment right now is because of her really adorable personality. And so it’s not surprising that she reacted thoughtfully and sweetly to being nominated for an Oscar for the first time at the age of 64. This included bowing to her family, such as her late mother, actress Janet Lee.
Jamie Lee Curtis has spoken about her career and legacy to her whopping 4.8 million Instagram followers. She thanked her immigrant family for going to the states to give her this opportunity. And despite such a long career in cinema, Curtis also admitted that she often felt like a stranger in Hollywood. Hopefully this latest award will help her feel different.
Of course, JLC also took the time to talk directly about the unique project that eventually earned her an Oscar nomination. Daniels’ song “Everything Everywhere at Once” was infinitely ambitious and had a completely unique tone. And although there was both an action movie and a comedy, the story was also emotional and told about family, immigration, trauma and acceptance. Curtis was an ardent cheerleader for the film, even getting into a multiverse feud with “Doctor Strange 2” in the process.
Considering the other nominations Jamie Lee Curtis has received this season for “Everything Everywhere at Once,” her Oscar nod seemed like the right decision ahead of the official announcement this morning. But fans of Daniels’ acclaimed film will also be happy to know that Curtis is nominated along with Stephanie Xu, who played Joy Wang/Joba Tupaki. We’ll just have to wait and see if any of them snatch the trophy, or if that honor goes to Angela Bassett for “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.”
