The guy interviewing Jamie Lee Curtis looks like Jamie Lee Curtis.

[@sakyia1]

That's her brother lol

[@jamaicanwash6667]

Yup! I agree. Thought the same thing! Could pass for biological twins.

[@romanf5666]

he is her mother - watch 'love boat' and you will see ;-)

[@jamaicanwash6667]

Yugh to Jamie Lee Curtis. She looks too masculine with hairdo.

The striptease in True Lies is legendary. Best body in hollywood& a cool chic!

[@demdjen77]

@Jackie Brison Too bad :))

[@feedingravens]

The best how she loses hold of the bed post and just disappear when she crashes to the floor. And the myth is that this was an unscripted accident. Almost can't be as this fits so fantastically to a housewife doing that for the first time. And when it is true, Arnie rushing up from the chair is true, unacted concern, no true lies ;-)

[@thesaintst1851]

She had a slamming body

[@mistermysteryman107]

And it wasn’t even her for the behind shots. It was a stand-in.

Looks like you didn't see her in "Trading Places."

The Arnold-anecdote doesn't surprise me one bit. He's really seems to be a stand-up guy. Plus Cameron was 100% right about her deserving equal credit. It's an Arnold-movie, yes ... but without Jamie it would not have worked as well as it did. Underrated film, IMO.

[@fabulousfrance]

Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel and many others wouldn't had accepted that. That's why Schwarzenegger will always be a legend way above them. Because he have a brain at least.

PRops to JOHN CARPENTER for writing Jamie in the Fog because he felt like she wasnt gettin work, Id been surprised too!

Johns clearly a great guy to, look up him trying to play Labo Piano. Hes just a riot in it. Also made my all time fav horror The Thing. Fucking love that movie.

Sure. More important she is just all grace and class. She works amongst people who rank a bit higher than politicians, and she has her humanity intact. At least she appears too. We don't know her.

[@michaelbarrutia6978]

True lies is a great movie classic

[@SThompsonRAMM_1203]

I was always hoping that they would do a sequel to that movie. Typically, I don’t like sequels, but I really thought this could’ve been another series kind of like Mission Impossible.

[@leafyutube]

Gorgeous woman.

[@joesackbaron]

3:10 when you voluntarily open up in an interview with a shot of raw truth, and the interviewer completely ignores you and moves on.😂

She tells him an amazing response and general attitude from Schwarzenegger that appears to be very rare in showbizz and the interviewer absolutely does not acknowledge or even respond to her heartfelt statement. What a dufus.

great interview ...... ///////////

[@60yobfandproudmills79]

My favorite movie with Jamie is True Lies with Arnold..I always hoped there would be a part,II whereby Jamie and Arnold along with Tom,the daughter..(and I wish Tia could have survived for one last slap/ punch from Jamie) are ready for retirement but have one last mission...and I mean a big one(think about it with all of the remakes around)..Also I seem 2 remember that Jamie's legs with black stillettos(sp) were featured on a James Bond.. advert..as the best legs in show business.....great lady!!!and she has aged well..I am glad she has embraced the gray/ white hair...and again...aging..beautifully.....all of your " seasoned" female fans such as myself and " seasoned" male fans appreciate you!!

[@shamsqasr6173]

The daughter is Eliza Dushku, and doubt she would do a sequel, since she was afraid of heights and was molested during filming.

[@abo7628]

No bill paxton so no

[@lyrand6408]

True Lies was amazing, heck even the games were (on SNES and Genesis, loved them). Jamie Lee Curtis was absolutely fantastic in True Lies, indeed, a great duo with Arnold; they just made it work seamlessly together, flowed super well, great chemistry. Just like Arnold and DeVito in Twins.

[@Stuff_And_Things]

I loved her in Grandview USA and True Lies. She's great in everything I've seen her in but those are my two favorite movies of hers.

[@ganderson158]

[@xfiler-gl7nc]

That wasn't scripted, she really fell down, Arnold quickly stands to help her but director said "keep rolling", so it stayed on film. Everything was real.

Jamie Lee Curtis still looks good. 🔥😍 And the lingerie scene in True Lies still the sexiest Scene ever.

[@stevegordon8474]

I had heard that not much happened for Jamie Lee Curtis after HALLOWEEN, the BIGGEST grossing independent movie up to then. But that was because Horror was not an appreciated genre within the movie business. Horror movies were looked down upon by the industry. That soon changed with more genre films like ALIEN and THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, etc. and directors like John Carpenter and George Lucas becoming household names And Jamie Lee went on to star in big hits like A FISH CALLED WANDA and TRUE LIES. I like her little aside about Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is really a very cool guy. Jamie Lee is pretty cool herself.

Jamie is wonderful and Arnie is the man.
