On the “Gold Minds with Kevin Hart” show on Kevin Hart’s Laugh Out Loud Radio, Jamie Lee Curtis talked about creating for the rest of her life — and owning it.
“If you’re a creative person, the tragedy is the creativity that dies with you if you don’t let it out, and so for me, I wake up turned on by creativity every day,” Jamie told Kevin. “I wake up like this every day. There’s not a day in my life where I wake up going, like, ‘Ugh.'”
She added, “And now, all of a sudden, I’m owning it. And now, all of a sudden, I’m a boss. All of a sudden, I’m a bitch boss, and I like it.”
Jamie stars as Tannis alongside Kevin, Cate Blanchett, and Edgar Ramírez in the “Borderlands” action-adventure film based on the best-selling video game (out August 9).
“And I’m now taking all of this great opportunity that has come my way … And from that, I am now getting to produce things, and then one of these things will end up on a screen, and you will get to see my name and it will say, ‘Jamie Lee Curtis. Produced by Jamie Lee Curtis,'” she said.
Her new producing credits include “Freaky Friday 2,” due out next year, and Prime Video’s Canadian series “The Sticky,” currently in post-production.
Jamie continued, “That is because I’m a creative person. I am constantly creating, and I will create until I die. I will not end up being one of those people that just drifts away. I’m gonna create until I die because that is what turns me on every day.”
