Jamie Lee Curtis swung by IGN Live at Comic-Con 2018 today to promote her upcoming film Halloween, a direct follow-up to the 1978 horror classic that launched her to stardom, during which time she paid tribute to that film’s director, John Carpenter, by telling us a sweet anecdote about what kind of a man he is.
“I’m going to tell you something about John, which is interesting because it just popped in my mind. Sp the first of shooting the original movie in 1978, the phone rang at the apartment i was living in with my friend Tina, at the end of that first day. And she said, ‘Jamie, it’s John Carpenter.’ And I was like (gasps). I thought I was going to be fired because I’d worked a day and that happens a lot.”
