LOS ANGELES — Jamie Lee Curtis weighed in Sunday on the debate surrounding gendered Oscar categories after winning the Academy Award for supporting actress.
Following her win for her acclaimed portrayal of tax auditor Deirdre Beaubeirdre in "Everything Everywhere All at Once," Curtis offered her opinion on gendered categories and advocated for more opportunities for women in the film industry.
"I would like to see a lot more women be nominated so that there's gender parity in all the areas and all the branches [of the film academy], and I think we're getting there. We're not anywhere near there," Curtis told reporters in the press room adjacent to Hollywood's Dolby Theatre.
