Publish date: 2024-08-03

As someone who barely needs an introduction, Jamie Lee Curtis is a well-known actor with over 80 credits to her name. While the performer behind Laurie Strode initially followed up “Halloween” with other horror films like “Terror Train,” “Prom Night,” and “The Fog,” she has since gone on to appear in all manner of genres and films.

Curtis played Ophelia in the Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd comedy “Trading Places” and also starred in the late 1980s absurdist comedy “A Fish Called Wanda.” During the same time period, she appeared in the crime thriller “Blue Steel” and had a central role in the early ’90s dramedy, “My Girl.”

Since then, she’s had a memorable part as Helen, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s wife in “True Lies,” played the co-lead in Lindsay Lohan’s body-swapping comedy “Freaky Friday” and notably played the role of Deidre Beaubeirdre in last year’s Oscar best picture winner, “Everything Everywhere All At Once.”

Of course, “Halloween” continues to define her career even five decades later. Aside from appearing in the sequel to the original film, she went on to show up in the first legacy sequel, “H20,” and its follow-up, “Resurrections.” Though these sequels were eventually scrubbed from the series’ continuity, Curtis went on to reprise the role of Laurie Strode once again for the most recent “Halloween” trilogy.
