Jamie Lee Curtis to reprise iconic character in new 'Halloween' movie
upi ^ | September 15, 2017

"Jamie Lee Curtis returns to her iconic role as Laurie Strode in Halloween Movie, coming to theaters October 19, 2018," Universal Studios Entertainment said on its Facebook page Friday.

No other details about the project were immediately released, but the post did include a photo of Curtis standing outside a house with white-masked, serial killer Michael Myers in the doorway behind her, holding a knife. A jack o'lantern is on the porch by her feet.

Laurie appears in six of the existing 10 Halloween movies. Curtis played the role in four installments from 1978 to 2002 and Scout Taylor-Compton portrayed the character in two re-boot features released 2007-09.

So would Dan Aykroyd. I once saw an interview with him saying he wasn’t on set that day.

Amen to "Trading Places."

She was one athletic woman. Jamie Lee Curtiss Perfect (1985). I imagine she's kept up the life-long exercise.

Jamie is cool. She is married to rock legend Nigel Tufnel, formerly of Squatney in the East End, who somehow managed to become Lord Haden-Guest.

I've seen it.

How about "Bottle Shock"? She had more lines as a bartender than Glenne Headly did as the bartender in the first X-Files movie.

JLC always was sort of a butterface. Now she could fill in for Anderson Cooper.

Politically, a fag hag & Hillary groupie. Well, that’s show biz.

I am amazed they didn’t make a True Lies 2...!

One of the best made films ever.

She is a real, real loon. Nice figure though. She is full on lib so I doubt the film will get many of us to watch it, plus Hollywood seems not to be able to do anything original anymore, not that I would watch.

They burned their bridges a long time ago with me.

From what I gather Jamie Lee is a democrat and supports same-sex marriage and Hillary Clinton. But I will admit she has aged well and one of the few women who always looks great with short hair.

Have they ever determined if she is a hermaphrodite or not yet?

“True Lies II would be good.”

I agree. A sequel could be great.

I saw Jamie Lee Curtis and her husband in person in a casual setting (two or more decades ago). She had on very little makeup and I thought she was one of the best looking women alive. I later read that she had done some cosmetic surgery before then, but nothing that looked fake - no gigantic silicone bags or bee-sting lips. As for personality, she didn’t have the Hollywood looking-to-trade-up quirks. She and her husband seemed to be a great match. None of us talked politics, so nothing spoiled the image. Among liberals, she is a rare one who looks beautiful and seems well adjusted.
