Jamie Lee Curtis has won the Oscar for best supporting actress Oscar for the superhero comedy Everything Everywhere All at Once at the Academy Awards in Los Angeles. Curtis plays tax inspector Deirdre Beaubeirdre in Everything Everywhere All at Once, as well as the character’s alternate-universe counterparts. The daughter of actors Janet Leigh and Tony Curtis, this was Jamie Lee Curtis’ first Oscar nomination in a four-decade acting career that includes Halloween, Trading Places, A Fish Called Wanda and True Lies. Curtis has received considerable award notice for the role, winning the Screen Actors Guild award for best supporting actress, and nominations from Bafta and the Golden Globes. In the event, she defeated a strong field in the Oscars race, including Angela Bassett for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and Hong Chau for The Whale. Curtis took to the stage amid a standing ovation, and declared that her win was one for the “hundreds of people” who had helped her career reach this moment. These included “my bae Michelle” Yeoh, the other cast and film-makers involved in Everything Everywhere All at Once, as well as her “beautiful family” – husband Christopher Guest, “our daughters, Annie and Ruby [and] my sister Kelly”. Curtis went on to thanks “all of the people who have supported the genre movies I have made all these years, the hundreds and thousands of people: we just won an Oscar! Together!” An emotional Curtis then looked to the sky as she spoke of her late parents, and their own Oscar nominations. “I just won an Oscar!” she concluded, clutching the award to her chest and bowing before she walked offstage.
