Golden Globe winning actress and filmmaker Jamie Lee Curtis and her Comet Pictures have announced that they have signed a three-year, first look deal with Blumhouse for both film and television projects, according to sources at Deadline.
“I’m 61 and my motto now is: ‘If not now, when, if not me, who?’ I’m excited to have a creative home to explore my own ideas and others. Jason and his team have made me feel welcome. Comet is ready to bring these stories to screen life,” Jamie Lee Curtis said in a statement.
“Jamie is a force of nature and was a real partner on Halloween. So it’s both an honor and incredibly apt that she’s making her first feature film as a director with Mother Nature,” says Jason Blum, Blumhouse CEO and Founder.
Blumhouse and Comet currently have a horror project in the works, entitled Mother Nature, which centers around climate change. Jamie Lee Curtis will direct and co-write the film alongside Russell Goldman. Goldman was recently named the Head of Film and Tv Development at Comet Pictures.
Hopefully horror fans will be able to catch Jamie Lee Curtis as the heroine Laurie Strode this October in Halloween Kills. Assuming the pandemic does not interfere. Be sure to follow ScaryNerd for more of all things horror.
