Jamie Lee Curtis Opens the Door for More Halloween Returns
Nov-05-2024
Jamie Lee Curtis has expressed her willingness to participate in additional Halloween films. The recent installment, Halloween Ends, was intended to mark a conclusion—not only for Michael Myers but also for Laurie Strode, who finally faced down her childhood nightmare after enduring many challenging years. Admittedly, enthusiasm for more Halloween content was lacking, especially after David Gordon Green's tenure seemed to diminish the franchise's legacy. However, in a conversation with Entertainment Weekly, Curtis indicated her openness to the possibility of returning to this beloved series.
She mentioned that she has metaphorically retired her bell-bottoms and pale blue button-down shirt, bidding farewell to Laurie with gratitude for all the years and experiences she cherished. The realization that her portrayal of Laurie Strode had reached its end was a profound moment for her. There were tears shed, as both she and David acknowledged that it marked the closure of a significant chapter not only for Laurie but for everyone involved in creating these films.
That said, Curtis brought up an important life lesson she's learned over her 65 years: never rule anything out completely. The Halloween franchise is one that has shown resilience over the years, and it's clear that it may not easily fade away. The thought of an older Strode bravely confronting villains with everyday kitchen tools is a scenario that might not excite many. What do you think? Would you like to see Curtis return to her iconic role, or is it time to let the character rest?
